What is the purpose of studying history? How do we reflect on
contemporary life from a historical perspective and can such
reflection help us better understand ourselves, the world around
us, and the God we worship and serve?
In this introductory textbook, accomplished historian John Fea
shows why Christians should study history, how faith is brought to
bear on our understanding of the past, and how studying the past
can help us more effectively love God and others. Deep historical
thinking can relieve us of our narcissism; cultivate humility,
hospitality, and love; and transform our lives more fully into the
image of Jesus Christ.
