Looking for a book or resource that talks about the revolutionary/radical nature of the early Christian Church
Hi Everyone,
This summer, I'm looking for a book that shows that the early Church was radical/revolutionary in carrying out the social justice teachings of Jesus. I'd like to show the students that the early Church was persecuted, in part, because of their different lifestyle that incorporated resistance to the Roman concept of justice. Thanks and Happy Summer to All! John Powell
Teaching about World Poverty? Simulations?
I'm about to start a short world poverty unit. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm always looking for games or simulations because the students enjoy/learn more than from my lectures. Thanks!
