Why the Past Matters
Earlier this week, in what is called a "Google hangout," Ligonier’s newest Teaching Fellow and church historian, Dr. Stephen J. Nichols, talked about why the past matters today and tomorrow. From the early church, to the Reformation, and recent centuries, these are necessary discussions to avoid what C.S. Lewis called, “chronological snobbery.”
Comments
I very much enjoyed this interview with Dr. Nichols. I have talked to other Christians about how important church history is, only to be told how much history doesn't matter. I have tried finding some good books on church history, can you recommend some good books on church history?
