It’s a deceptively simple question, because how we refer to one another is how we understand our relationships.\u003cbr\u003eNot recognizing the power of our words makes it harder for us to trust and serve one another—to love one another. In \u003ci\u003eMore than Christians\u003c\/i\u003e, Norman Hubbard explores how the early church used common words in uncommon ways to make sense of their relationships with God and with one another. His research and contextualization of the cultural background to the New Testament is as practical for today as it is urgent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore we were called Christians …\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe called each other \u003ci\u003ebrothers\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003esisters\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe saw ourselves and one another as \u003ci\u003esaints\u003c\/i\u003e—set apart by God for God’s purposes;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe understood ourselves and one another as \u003ci\u003ebeloved\u003c\/i\u003e by God and therefore worthy of love.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese and other names defined us at the very beginning of Jesus’ transforming ministry.
