A Christian Message I Can Believe In

Eboo Patel, a member of the On Faith Forum panel at the Washington Post on line, quotes Brian McLaren, one of the leading lights of what is known as the Emergent Christian movement, as follows:
A lot of us believe that the reason for Jesus is to get our souls to heaven. But I don’t think Christianity is a fire escape message. I think the message of Christianity is about the Kingdom on Earth.

Such a succinct summation of my own view of Christianity is wonderful to behold.
