The Weekly Historian

"Every Christian ought to be a good historian, and if his knowledge of history be improved by him as it ought, the better historian he is, the better Christian will he be." This pithy remark by the eighteenth-century Baptist leader, Caleb Evans, was delivered in a sermon calling "ordinary" Christian to read history and remember it, for in truth they were surrounded by its impact day after day. 

 

This weekly reader is designed to help you become "a good historian" in the way that Evans desired. These 52 weekly reflections, each of which takes but a few minutes to read, are a reminder of how important history-in this case, actually, church history-is for the Christian.
