The first deals with theoretical issues such as the need for church history, how you write about God as a cause of events, and objectivity in historical research. The second is more pratcical in nature, and deals with the types and use of sources, documentation, and types of historical research. The appendices provide helpful information on terms, how to use church history in a local church, and how to write a local church history. --from publisher description
