Church History Matters
This week I’m joined by THE Troy Fraiser who is one part of the Revived Studio/Revived Thoughts podcast empire. He joins me to discuss why Church history matters and what we can learn from it. What does this have to do with apologetics? The past 2,000 years of the church have been nothing but an apologetic to who God is and what His People, the Church, do in history!
Because Troy is so knowledgeable on the subject the interview HAD to be split up into two parts. In this first part, we talk about what is interesting enough about church history to dedicate a show to it. We talk about the sung and unsung heroes in brief. Then we talk about what church history is and who should be included. Finally, we talk about the pride we should have in a God who moves people to do what the great cloud of witnesses to the faith has done to get us to where we are today – and how we should learn from them so we can grow and go and not shrink and dink – around.
Next week is part 2 with even more goodness in store. Check the links below!
