Not all history timelines are the same. More than a history timeline—or even a Christian history timeline—the Chain of Christianity® teaches us:
- how men are governed
- how God uses individual character to forward Christ, His-Story
- the ten links of Christian history that moved the Gospel westward
- key individuals, key events, key institutions that moved the Gospel westward
- how each subject has a Biblical foundation and Christian history
- what our role is as Christians who happen to be American
- to think governmentally—internal to external and cause to effect
Join us to learn about these things and more!
