Listen "The Benefits of a Life of the Mind: 3. Become Historically Literate."

Episode Synopsis

Another benefit that comes from pursuing a life of the mind is historical literacy. Anyone committed to broadening his or her thinking for Christ will inevitably encounter the great Christian Classics from the past. These works are some of the best ever written and come from some of the greatest minds the world has ever known. Here we discuss four reasons to become historically literate. First, you'll interact with Christians gifted to be intellectual giants. Second, you'll arm yourself against deceptive heresies and all-too-common false teachings. Third, you'll broaden your Christian family. And finally, you'll protect against cultural assimilation.
