In this episode, we begin a full series through the Didache, one of the earliest Christian discipleship texts, by focusing on chapters 1 through 4, known as The Way of Life. Written for new believers on the edge of the apostolic age, the Didache does not open with doctrine or debate. It opens with a path. A way to walk. A life to be formed.
We explore how The Way of Life is built around love, restraint, generosity, humility, and obedience, drawing deeply from the teachings of Jesus without needing to quote them directly. Faith here is not defined by private belief but by public practice. Speech, money, sexuality, anger, hospitality, and community responsibility are treated as spiritual disciplines rather than personal preferences.
As we work through these opening chapters, we reflect on how the Didache confronts modern assumptions about discipleship. What does it mean to follow Christ when the earliest Christians assumed moral formation, not spiritual minimalism? Why does this text refuse to separate belief from behavior? And how does The Way of Life expose the gaps left when Christianity becomes cultural rather than lived?
This episode invites listeners to step back into the earliest rhythms of Christian formation. It is the beginning of a journey through the Didache that will move from The Way of Life to The Way of Death, asking not only what Christians believed, but how they were expected to live.
