Ancient Church - Week 2

This week, Josh talks about the ancient practice of baptism, which has been central to Christianity since its inception. Specifically, he challenges us to consider two "points of tension" in our relationship with God, as it has been mediated by Jesus:

1. The moment of "death," when we see our shortcomings clearly and recognize that change must come from a place outside of us, and that it will cost us much.

2. The moment of "birth," when we enter into seasons of transformation, "stretching new muscles," and practicing the beliefs that have become central to us through our faith.
