Do you wish you could edit history? Understandably there are often some difficult realities to face in our personal and national past.

It might be more palatable to wipe it away, but in so doing we are at risk of not recognising the same problems should they reappear in a slightly different guise in the future. That’s one reason why history, and church history in particular, is essential for Christians and young Christians.
