The birth of the Christian Church is an event that stands at the intersection of history, theology, and the lived experience of the early disciples. It begins with the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, an event that, according to Christian belief, signifies the victory over death and the inauguration of a new covenant between God and humanity. This momentous event gave rise to what would become a new way of life, a new movement—one that sought to embody the teachings and the life of Christ in communal unity. Central to this was the idea of koinonia, or fellowship, as it was known in the Greek-speaking world of the early Mediterranean, a concept that would shape the very heart of the Church from its inception.
