Nothing provocative or life-changing. In fact, it seems the authors of the Didache simply cut and paste snippets taken from the New Testament and pasted them into this collection of customs, rules, and regulations. Perhaps this was intentionally done since most of the early church didn't have the full canon of Scripture in their possession at this time (2nd century AD). Nevertheless, I am glad I read this historical document that the early church utilized. A document that gave me a brief glimpse into how the early church operated and worshipped during a time of great persecution and upheaval.
