Why is it important that we study persecution?

It is important that we study persecution becuase it is a huge issue that has been happening for hundreds of years.  We get to talk about God, go to Church, go to a Christian school all freely. But I don’t think we undertand what goes on around the world, so that’s why we need to learn about persecution. There thousands of stories each day of people being persecuted for their faith and it is important that we learn about them and try to find a way that we can help.
