About this listen
In today's episode, we explore The Christian Revolution, a profound shift that redefined the ancient world's understanding of equality, individualism, and human dignity.
We’ll discuss the ancient world, where natural inequality and rigid caste systems were the norm. We'll uncover how civilizations preserved order through familial loyalty and religious practices, and how the concept of the individual was virtually non-existent.
But amidst this backdrop, a revolutionary movement began to take root. We'll discuss how Jesus and the early Christians sowed the seeds of a new identity, where all individuals were invited to become members of a new family the body of Christ, transcending traditional roles and embracing the primacy of individual choice and conscience.
We'll also touch on the early church's radical approach to leadership and community, where men, women, slaves, and children were all involved in discussions and decision-making. Discover how the Christian movement preserved these principles and laid the foundation for our modern values of equality, human rights, and justice.
