All hail the Original Revolutionary! Jesus turned the world upside down, revealed God in mind-popping ways, redefined faith, and launched a war against all things dark and dysfunctional, all in just three short years. No wonder so many people think he's a great guy. Besides being the unique Son of God. Worthy of a deeper look?
Scott Bartchy is a radical. He believes in a subversive system that embraces those on the fringes of our society and seeks to establish a new way of life that goes against the status quo.
Kind of like Jesus.
Bartchy, currently the Director of the Center for the Study of Religions at UCLA, notes a great gap between the original, early form of church in the first three hundred years of Christianity, and the modern concept of doing church today.
