What can Christians do to cut through all the religious rhetoric and offer true direction to those around us?

What can Christians do to cut through all the religious rhetoric and offer true direction to those around us? A memory from childhood remains vivid in this writer's mind: Tagging along behind my mother through a Chicago store, I clung tightly to the hem of her red skirt. Releasing it to get a closer look at all the toys, we became separated. Frantically searching for her, I grabbed a red skirt and held on with a death grip following her all over the crowded store. Finally, looking up at the person towering over me, I found myself staring into the face of a total stranger who was also wearing a red skirt! Looking back I wonder how many of us who call ourselves Christians are like that lost little boy. We think we have a firm grip on the truth, but we let religious attitudes and baseless traditional teachings lead us to make wrong decisions. This book takes a look at wrong choices and the confusion plaguing Christians in the modern church, and offers suggestions on how to make right choices.
