This book addresses the fact that many followers of Christ Jesus are living far below the level of Christianity than which they actually could and should be living. And the consequences for the communities in which Christ followers live by our failure to be completely committed to the cause of Christ as we live and work with people around us. Many of whom may also be looking for some guidance which may be found within these pages to find the blessed gem of genuine Christianity as opposed to meaningless religiosity.
