Rome is a living historical museum—a place like no other for studying not only the history of the world but specifically the history of the Christian church. As an EU city of over three million people, it remains a significant, relevant urban center today. The discipline of history concerns itself with the stories and interpretations that provide meaning for human life. Just as with individuals, loss of historical memory makes societies, faith, movements, and ideas rootless. This is why Veritas has given special priority to the Christian study of history. To properly engage with other nations, whether through education, evangelism, or business, we must know their histories. We must understand our background and the backgrounds of others if we are going to develop effective relationships. Students will have the opportunity to study their fields for credit, as well as serve the Italian community in Rome, and enroll in our Veritas courses.
