Why is this important?
Without seeing history and the people in it through
the eyes of Faith, you cannot see how the good
that has come to you in your own lifetime has
traveled a long way, fought many enemies, and
overcome many obstacles, in order to reach you
and provide you with its blessings. Knowing this
and being thankful is a key to enjoying and
preserving those blessings.
You cannot understand people if you do not
understand their past
You cannot understand your community if
you do not know how it came to be
You cannot understand your nation without
unless you know its history
You cannot understand our world if you do
not understand history
