Misplaced Hope: The Origins of First and Second Century Eschatology

Historically the Christian faith has believed that Jesus will return again one day, visibly in the sky. However, several centuries of Bible scholarship have been pointing out glaring problems with this premise. Casting caution aside, entire millennial movements have been founded, and dates keep being set. Could the confessing church be wrong? Could it have misread its fulfilled roots? How did the early church understand its eschatology after the fall of Jerusalem? Misplaced Hope takes you back to the apostolic fathers and the first two centuries of church history (A.D. 70 - 200) to find the answers.
