Understanding history: Seventh-day Adventists and their perspectives. <em>TEACH Journal of Christian Education, 10</em>(1), 54-62. doi:10.55254/1835-1492.1312https://doi.org/10.55254/1835-1492.1312https://research.avondale.edu.au/handle/123456789/08873039<p>History is never abstract. It is always the story of how we came to believe and act the way we do today. Understanding the history of a particular denomination can transform discussions of contemporary issues from divisive stonethrowing to a more sensitive awareness of how and why certain beliefs and practices are current, or are currently under threat of change. And a knowledge of a Seventh-day Adventist understanding of history explains a great deal about the church and touches on many of the key conflicts and controversies that have affected, and currently affect, the church. Hence, it is topical for the teacher in Adventist schools, and by parallel, to teachers in all Christian schools.</p>en-ushistoryhistoriographySeventh-day Adventistreligious historyJournal Article
