  Foreword Book of the Year Award Finalist 
   
   
   
  The Pilgrims' celebration of the first Thanksgiving is a keystone of America's national and spiritual identity. But is what we've been taught about them or their harvest feast what actually happened? And if not, what difference does it make? 
   
   
   
  Through the captivating story of the birth of this quintessentially American holiday, veteran historian Tracy McKenzie helps us to better understand the tale of America's origins—and for Christians, to grasp the significance of this story and those like it. McKenzie avoids both idolizing and demonizing the Pilgrims, and calls us to love and learn from our flawed yet fascinating forebears. 
   
   
   
  The First Thanksgiving is narrative history at its best, and promises to be an indispensable guide to the interplay of historical thinking and Christian reflection on the meaning of the past for the present.

  Christianity Easily Explained to...

  There are two problems with Christianity today. 
  Problem one: Many church goers don't understand the big picture of Christianity. They learn a few individual puzzle pieces here and there, but they don't know what the big put together picture looks like. 
  Problem two: Most Christian resources were written in the Modernist framework. They do a good job of organizing and explaining the content, but do a poor job connecting what Christianity means to today's Postmodern generation. As a result, today's audience have a hard time connecting the dots on how Christianity provides meaning to their lives. Why am I here on earth? What is the meaning to life? Do I matter? What is the purpose to my life? Not to mention, older Christian books are too hard to understand. 
  By dividing Christianity into five parts - Sabbath, Sin, Justice, Jesus, Ambassadorship - I explain the big picture of Christianity and connect it to today's value system in an easy to understand way.
