Jaymie Stuart Wolfe on Christ as the Center of Human History

"As the coronavirus crisis moves into the background and our attention shifts to ongoing civil unrest, it's a good idea to turn off the constant stream of news and take time to both pray and think. The upheaval we are currently witnessing did not flash upon the scene one day full-blown; it has been simmering for a very long time. And while many of us might be tempted to retreat to a safe place, pull the sheets over our heads and hide until it's all over, I don't believe that's really an option for any committed Christian. This moment in our nation's history must not pass us by, nor will it. But we must do more than just live through whatever unfolds; we must find ways to live it in a manner that is fitting for disciples of Jesus Christ. 

"History, however, is slippery. It's more than just facts, more than names and places and dates. History is the interpretation of events, and not always as they occurred or by someone who witnessed them. . . ."

In a recent commentary, writer Jaymie Stuart Wolfe reflected on how, as "we review the civil icons of American history, we should remember that Jesus Christ is the center of human history and that all men are sinners in need of redemption."
