Top Five Christians From History I Would Like to Meet

Posted on November 14, 2018August 5, 2021 By Stephen Bedard No Comments on Top Five Christians From History I Would Like to Meet
General History

Over at my main website, I’m doing a series of top five lists to celebrate my fiftieth birthday. I thought I would do one here as well.

I am interested in church history, obviously since I write this blog and podcast. There are certain people from church history that I would have loved to have met.

  1. Augustine of Hippo
  2. Alfred the Great
  3. John Wesley
  4. William Wilberforce
  5. Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Who would you have liked to have met?
