I am Reverend Steven D. Martin, and for the past two decades, I have grappled with a crucial question: Why are Christian leaders often found on the wrong side of history? This introspection has been a journey, one that has led me to scrutinize our past to glean insights for our present. It’s not about criticizing the church out of bitterness; it’s about understanding our missteps to avoid repeating them. The stark revelations of the Church’s failures during the Third Reich have been particularly illuminating. As we embark on this exploration, we aim to unravel the complexities of those times to ensure that history does not repeat itself.

Our journey begins with the Weimar government, grievance politics, extremism, and scapegoating in Germany in the 1920s.
