20 pointsyou don't need to cite anything, just make it flow better! ! guidelines where did the early christians meet? what were their activities and responsibilities? who were their leaders? what problems did they face? my essay. it is around 200 words, the goal for 250.the church has evolved over several centuries and generations. some of these changes are for the better, such as more people being to be able to worship freely, however, some of these changes were (and are) regretfully for the worse. such an example is the overcommercialization of the church to attract worldly people. overcommercialization causes christians to lose sight of what's important and focus on what's not. it also causes christians to sin just so the can attract a different kind of crowd. but it wasn't always this way. early christians faced more persecution, but that same persecution drove them closer to god. there was really focus on spreading the wonderful news of the gospel instead of hiding behind the things of this world. they would meet in synagogues and homes to share this message too. there was really focus on spreading the wonderful at the beginning of sharing the gospel, the responsibility fell on a few people to spread the word. the disciples were these messengers, along with jesus. the disciples also had the job of finding to spread the word.
