Present Perfect: An Applied Church History Podcast

Teachers need to be honest about where they're coming from. In this podcast, I talk about my presuppositions, the places where my thinking and beliefs begin. As you'll discover, these influence my outlook on history.

Time is the organizer of history. Humans are time-oriented, so we see everything from a past, present, and future perspective. But time is tricky! Understanding it in relation to historical study is crucial. We'll start to tackle this difficult subject today.

Facts are slippery things! While you might think the facts of history are straightforward and objective, nothing could be farther from the truth. We're going to take a look at what we know and what we don't.

In this episode, I talk a bit about the principles of history and how I'm going to apply them in the podcasts. This isn't your usual history--it's applied history!

Welcome to the first episode of Present Perfect, an applied church history podcast. In this episode, we introduce the podcast and let you know what it's all about.
