Biblical and Christian HistoryHistorical Articles Relating to Bible Events and the Church Era

In this section, we'll feature articles relating to the history of the Christian religion and the church, such as notable leaders and events, growth, challenges, schisms, theological disputes, various movements and more.  Unfortunately, many Christians today are unaware of our rich historical heritage since references to Christianity (except in a negative sense) have been virtually erased from most modern history books and other media productions.

In addition, we examine Christianity's relationship to and influence on the various other cultural spheres such as science, art, literature, music, government, and society in general.  The Bible was given to us in an historical context, so if Christianity is true (and it is), it must be true in all the cultural realms.

We're also adding historical articles on the Old Testament and Intertestament time periods.  Articles relating to Christianity's role in the founding and establishment of America are located in the America's Christian Heritage section.
