If you could witness any moment in history, which one would you choose? Why would you choose it?
 
In secular history, I think I might choose to witness the inventing of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg. This heads my list of history-changing inventions.
 
In Christian history, I think I might choose to witness the 40 days of training the resurrected Messiah provided to the apostles. Intense.
