  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.

  The summer evening had begun to fold the world in its mysterious embrace. Far away in the west the sun was setting and the last glow of all too fleeting day lingered lovingly on sea and strand, on the proud promontory of dear old Howth guarding as ever the waters of the bay, on the weedgrown rocks along Sandymount shore and, last but not least, on the quiet church whence there streamed forth at times upon the stillness the voice of prayer to her who is in her pure radiance a beacon ever to the stormtossed heart of man, Mary, star of the sea. 
  The three girl friends were seated on the rocks, enjoying the evening scene and the air which was fresh but not too chilly. Many a time and oft were they wont to come there to that favourite nook to have a cosy chat beside the sparkling waves and discuss matters feminine, Cissy Caffrey and Edy Boardman with the baby in the pushcar and Tommy and Jacky Caffrey, two little curlyheaded boys, dressed in sailor suits with caps to match and the name H. M. S. Belleisle printed on both. For Tommy and Jacky Caffrey were twins, scarce four years old and very noisy and spoiled twins sometimes but for all that darling little fellows with bright merry faces and endearing ways about them. They were dabbling in the sand with their spades and buckets, building castles as children do, or playing with their big coloured ball, happy as the day was long. And Edy Boardman was rocking the chubby baby to and fro in the pushcar while that young gentleman fairly chuckled with delight. He was but eleven months and nine days old and, though still a tiny toddler, was just beginning to lisp his first babyish words. Cissy Caffrey bent over him to tease his fat little plucks and the dainty dimple in his chin.
