The Time Tunnel of Early Church History

Today the TV Show “Timeless,” takes its main characters back to a specific moment in History. Being present in a particular Historical time frame affords one with a unique opportunity to meet a famous person.

What would your question to Jesus Be?

If you were so fortunate to happen upon the person of Jesus Christ, what might you be thinking? Being limited to only one question to ask Jesus, what question might you want to ask?

A Church Falling into the Quick Sand of Inertia.
As our journey continues, just as we are struck with the absence of any visible Church’s like we know them today, we also experience the refreshing loss of absence of the entangling roots from today’s Institutional Church.

We notice in particular, as these early Christians gather for Eucharist, they never in their wildest of dreams, could ever fathom a future Institutional Church operating out of complete inertia. The Catholic Church today is bound up by its own man-made Canon law, and its own refusal to change laws which continue to hinder any Catholic’s Baptismal rites to not only the Eucharist but to women, once again, being allowed to be Priests again.
