[OLD] Supernatural protection vs. Confidence in science & experts
Text of excerpt, if available
While I never could pinpoint why, I am more convinced now than ever that reading history is a healthy form of withdrawal. It’s a withdrawal from the intensity of the current moment in such a way where I am reminded that God has never left His throne. Don’t misread this: reading history and historical accounts ARE NOT meant to water down the current crisis with Covid-19 or struggles attached to it. My goal in reading history isn’t aimed to convince myself that this pandemic is “not that bad”, because to be honest, I do think it’s that bad. And it’s getting worse, and I am not just hearing it from the news, I’m hearing it from friends and fellow believers who work on the front lines in the hospitals.
