5.0 – Season 5 Living the Faith- Overview
The Letters to the Churches
From Mission to Discipleship
The Book of Acts tells the story of how the Church began.
The letters of the New Testament teach us how the Church learned to live.
As the gospel spread across the Roman world, new churches faced real-life questions.
How should Christians treat one another?
How do believers grow in faith?
What does it mean to follow Jesus in daily life?
How should the Church respond to conflict, suffering, temptation, and cultural pressure?
The apostles wrote letters to answer these questions and encourage believers.
These letters became a vital part of the New Testament and continue guiding Christians today.
Season Five explores how believers learned to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in their homes, churches, communities, and everyday lives.
The mission had begun.
Now believers were learning how to walk faithfully with Christ.
