Christian History

We must not submit ourselves to false gods and godless men. Instead, we may hold fast to Christ, because He’s holding fast to us.

We consider the year 1766, and preacher Jonathan Mayhew. The reading is from Thomas C. Oden's, "Classic Christianity."

We consider the year 1115 and Peter the Hermit. The reading is the last verse of the poem “O Sacred Head Now Wounded” by Bernard of Clairvaux.

We consider the year 1647 and the death of the “father of Connecticut,” Thomas Hooker. The reading is from "Tomb thou shalt not hold Him longer" by Phillips Brooks.

The disciplines of history and archaeology have assisted in demonstrating the integrity and accuracy of the Bible.
