Something most people never hear in church — the earliest followers of Jesus didn't call themselves Christians. That word came later. In Antioch. After Paul started his mission to the gentiles (Acts 11:26). The people who actually walked with Jesus? They called it The Way. It shows up three times in Acts: "If any belonged to The Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem." — Acts 9:2 "Some became stubborn and continued in unbelief, speaking evil of The Way before the congregation." — Acts 19:9 "According to The Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers." — Acts 24:14 Think about that. Not a church. Not a denomination. Not a set of beliefs you check a box on. A way. A path you walk every single day. And Jesus said it himself: "I am the way, the truth, and the life." — John 14:6 Not "I am the religion." Not "I am the institution." The way. Love God. Love your neighbor. Keep the commandments. Forgive and be forgiven. Walk the narrow path. That's it. That's what they were doing before anyone called it Christianity. That's what this community is named after. Not the version that came later. The original one. What does The Way mean to you?
