Description

Historical literacy is a critical tool for Christians, deepening faith and enhancing evangelism and discipleship.

Sarah Irving Stonebreaker says we’ve forgotten how to engage well with the past, we don’t know why the past might be relevant to us today, and we have missed out on being part of a larger story.

We need to uncover overlooked histories, bringing historical injustices to light, move beyond  culture wars, bring historical injustices to light and recognise the sins of the past (including our own).

Sarah is Associate Professor of History in Western Civilization at the Australian Catholic University.

She says the church can offer a rich narrative that can reconnect those feeling adrift.

Sarah Irving Stonebreaker has a new book "Priests of History: Stewarding the Past in an ahistoric Age." https://bit.ly/4eSfpfJ
