What Is The Weekly Landing?
The Weekly Landing is the flagship publication of History Landing 1620 — a free weekly newsletter delivered every Wednesday morning to subscribers who love history, value truth, and want to go deeper into the Christian intellectual tradition.
Each issue features original essays, historical profiles, primary source excerpts, book recommendations, and reflections on the intersection of faith, history, and culture. We write for serious readers who are tired of shallow content and hungry for substance.
The Weekly Landing is always free. We believe that the inheritance of Christian civilization belongs to everyone — and that the best way to preserve it is to give it away generously.
What to Expect Each Week
A long-form original essay on a topic in Christian history, theology, philosophy, or culture. Typically 800–1,500 words. Written to inform, challenge, and inspire.
A portrait of a significant figure from Christian history — a theologian, statesman, reformer, missionary, or scholar whose life and work deserve to be remembered.
An excerpt from a primary source — a sermon, letter, treatise, or document — with brief context. The voices of the past, speaking directly to the present.
Recommendations from the History Landing 1620 reading list — new releases, forgotten classics, and essential texts for the serious student of Christian history.
A brief meditation connecting the week's themes to faithful living today. History is not merely academic — it is a school of wisdom for the present.
