Church History
Embedded Files
Our Church History studies are a foundational component of understanding who we are, and the stories, cultures, and peoples that have become our own. These are often interwoven chronologically into our other historical studies to gain the greatest context, though they can also be broken out as a separate subject for those adding Church History onto other history curriculms.
