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. How did the early church understand its eschatology after the fall of Jerusalem? Misplaced Hope take you back to the apostolic fathers and the first two centuries of church history (A.D. 70-200) to find the answers.
