The word "love" in our culture has many meanings. It can mean desire," I love chocolate cake." It can define an amorphous happy feeling we have toward those people and things in our life we deem important. "I love my grandchildren." Where does love come from? What does it really mean? Why is it at the heart of true Christianity? Why can't Christianity exist without love? What is the relationship between God and love? Understanding love in its truest sense is the first step in understanding who Christ was and what was his message. When Christians have erred over the centuries and even in many churches today it is because they have lost track of this foundation of Christian belief.
The next challenge is applying love to daily decision making. How can we incorporate the basic concept of love into our day to day decision making process? Are we ever allowed to be selfish? Is it OK to think about our own self-preservation and well-being? Should we give all our possessions to the poor? Are there guidelines we can follow in our decision making process?
What the book attempts to do is to analyze various everyday life situations where decisions need to be made. At the end of the day we are the product of our decisions; we are what we do. If we make decisions based upon love we are following Christ. The book analyzes how we handle decision making in areas like competition, money, sex, power, beauty, business and family matters. The objective of the book is to help us make better decisions and avoid the trap of selfishness. If you struggle from time to time as to how to become a better Christian then you should read this book.
His mission was to understand the underlying concepts of Christianity and make a logical determination of whether they made sense and how they applied to everyday life. During this time period he kept copious notes which he periodically edited and reviewed. Finally he decided to compile his notes along with his life experiences into a book. Originally the purpose of the book was to help him understand his own thoughts and feelings by organizing them in a cohesive cogent text. His goal was to apply the basic principles of Christianity to daily decision making.
Ultimately he realized that Christianity was all about love. All decisions and life choices came down to understanding what love is (selflessness) and its opposite sin (selfishness). As he researched these concepts and looked to his past life experiences, he realized that his was no simple task as we are all wired to be selfish and for a reason. This book represents his conclusions after 10 years of research and contemplation of his own life and those around him.
