The use of voluntary associations as a way to begin understanding
Christ groups has become accepted practice in much of modern New
Testament scholarship. This consensus has been decades in the
making, building on work from the previous century. Easy access to
influential works in this field enables students and scholars to
expand our horizons for studying Christian origins. The chapters in
this volume represent some of the key figures and their arguments
across three major periods of interest in the development of using
associations as a model for understanding early Christ groups. A
new introduction orients the reader to the important contributions
of each essay and to where the essays fit within broader attempts
at reconstructing the development of Christianity. While much work
remains in this field, Christ Groups and Associations serves to
demonstrate the breadth of existing research and past discoveries
on Christ groups enmeshed within the Greco-Roman cultural and
social milieu and also the communal patterns that preceded and
surrounded such groups. Modern scholars can build on these essays
to join in the lively debate about the relevance of associations
for understanding the claims and practices of the earliest Christ
groups.
