Christian History for Everyman
Christian history is, by definition, the most exciting stories and interesting facts of all time.
Everyman … is you!
Have you heard of the days—before electricity—when instead of TV shows and movies, there were stories around the campfire?
The storyteller was the most beloved man in the village. Children huddled around the fire in the evening, shivering not just from the cold, but from excitement.
"Grandfather, tell us about the time … !"
That is Christian history.
Cursed are the men who took the world's most exciting stories and tastiest tidbits of information—for those are what Christian history is—and locked them up in the dry and dusty halls of academia.
Christian History for Everyman has taken them back for you!

This is NOT an alternative history site.
Everything you will read on this site is mainline Christian history, well-researched, and in line with current scholarship. I like to point out the parts that make others nervous, but I never make up my own history.
If the scholars don't know about it, it probably isn't true.
I'll give you references and the ability to know how history is accurately done. Follow the links sprinkled through this site for excellent references to self-study.
This site's just a lot less boring than seminary!
