In the first millennium of Christian history, the foundations of Christendom were laid by Christian princes, who created the European nations while offering us an example of how the world can be made Christian without Christians becoming worldly. History, the great teacher of Christian life and faith, instructs us by the example of the martyrs, how the truth is not negotiable and must be witnessed - if necessary, to the shedding of one's blood. History edifies us with the example of the Crusaders, ignoring the trials that they would undergo and offering their lives for the Church.
