I recently took a History of Christianity class, taught by Craig Barnes. This class was taught extremely well and got new thoughts in my head. One of the assignments was a lengthy research paper. For my topic I chose to examine pre-Constantine and post-Constantine ecclesiologies through the lens of Missiology and then applied these two differing ecclesiologies to two ends of a pendulum and examined how they can potentially inform the current disparity between the 'Mega-Church' and the 'Emergent Church.'

Give it a read, hopefully you find it fairly accessible, and worth the 15 minutes it will take to read it.
