Rev. Dr. Vern Poy-thress (PhD, Harvard; DTh, Stellenbosch) is a distinguished professor of New Testament, biblical interpretation, and systematic theology at Westminster Theological Seminary, where he has taught for 44 years.
Winston Churchill once said, “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” Yet, most Americans don't know their country's history, let alone the faith-building history upon which this country stood. James 4:14 tells us that our lives are but a vapor and that God is the author of history.
Expect to learn what we need in order to study history, how history in and outside the Bible leads us to praise and glorify God, why thinking you are better than those in the past is a sign of arrogance, what to cling to when evil invades your life and the ones you love, in light of all of this how should we be living ours lives differently, and much more.
