Covenant’s Green edits essay collection
Dr. Jay Green, professor of history at Covenant College, has edited “Confessing History: Explorations in Christian Faith and the Historian’s Vocation” with former classmates John Fea and Eric Miller. The collection is published by Notre Dame Press.
Comprised of more than a dozen essays, “Confessing History” aims to develop a deeper understanding of history as a vocation from a Christian point of view.
The three editors, Fea, Green and Miller, studied together under Dr. John Woodbridge at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. They worked to bring their independent essays into accord so that the book could be read as one complete collaborative work.
