As we approach the Capetown 2010 Lausanne Congress, we do so with a deep humility and seriousness of heart. We are living now at a vital time in Church history and in world history. We must not let this God-appointed opportunity slip by. To understand the time in which we live, we must grasp how we arrived to where we are today. Learning our history is a critical part of this. To engage with the forces behind the advance of Islam, or the disintegration of the West, we must first equip ourselves with the knowledge and wisdom of our past.
