How to Save Christianity - Stephen Hawley Martin - Bog

This is the true story of a young man who was raised a Christian. As a teenager he wanted to follow in the footsteps of his father, a successful evangelical Christian pastor, but as a newly minted college graduate, his attitude changed. Some Christian doctrine he had been brought up to believe now struck him as negative, uncharitable, and difficult to believe. So, to the horror of his parents, he left the Church. Three years later, circumstances caused his personal life to fall apart. Stuck in deep depression, he became suicidal. When he hit bottom, he had a epiphany-a spiritual awakening. The experience prompted him to reinterpret statements he recalled Jesus had made about the kingdom of God. He saw these verses in a totally new light and realized that no one he knew-not his father, not his Sunday school teachers, no one-had understood what Jesus had been trying to communicate. His experience and his new understanding of Jesus' message turned his life around. He realized that if the Church were to embrace and begin to communicate the truth he now understood, Christianity would almost certainly undergo a renaissance. It would literally set people free, as learning the truth, and living the truth, had set him free.Read this book and discover what this young man discovered.
