What was early Christianity like?

Here are some interesting articles about what early Christianity was like:

A Look at the Early Church by Ken Curtis, Ph.D.

What Were Early Christians Like?

The Spread of the Early Church by Ken Curtis, Ph.D.

Sing and Make Melody to God by Diane Severance, Ph.D.

When Is Easter?

Whatever Happened to the Twelve Apostles? by Ken Curtis, Ph.D.

The Jewish Background to the Bible

You can read back issues of Jewish Voice magazine for free as .pdf files. I'd recommend reading the Sept/Oct 2009 issue.

The main articles were:

The Teaching of Mount Sinai
By Ann Spangler & Lois Tverberg

The Four Messianic Miracles
By Cheryl Schang

Understanding The Fall Feasts
By Jonathan Bernis


All three article are interesting and insightful, but I'd highly recommend reading the article: The Four Messianic Miracles by Cheryl Schang. It's a quick read and gives a great insight into the gospels that I've not heard before but which makes perfect sense with what's going on in the gospels.
