Modern Christians have lost sight of the early Ekklesia as it was called in the New Testament. Graham Wood offers a crisp reminder of the few who seek to call the rest of us to simple faith, the practice of when the church (Ekklesia was young). Many voices, from the periphery, are waking up to the need to return to simpler days where relationship, fellowship, and one-anothering were possible. This return to the early church practices not only fosters a sense of belonging and community but also gives us a clear purpose, inspiring us to grow as a body working together. When the Church Was Very Young is a clarion call to return to the design we read about in the New Testament.
