Everyday Mission: What the Early Church Knew That We Forgot

What did first century evangelism actually look like? Was it driven by programs, platforms, and professionals, or something much deeper?

In this episode, we unpack key insights from Michael Green’s Evangelism in the Early Church and explore how Christianity spread so rapidly across the Roman world without church buildings, modern technology, or centralized systems. We discuss why ordinary believers became the primary missionaries, how households and relationships served as the engine of mission, and why the life of the church itself became one of its strongest apologetics.

We also wrestle with challenging questions for today’s church. Has mission become something we do rather than something we are? What can we learn from a movement where faith traveled through everyday life, bold conversations, transformed communities, and believers who saw themselves as witnesses wherever they lived, worked, and played?

Join us as we explore what it means to recover an everyday missionary mindset and ask whether the church was ever intended to merely have a mission, or whether the church exists because it is a mission.
