Call me and we'll have lunch!<BR/><BR/>I wrote "not from protecting legally the evangelical version of the American Dream", and I meant our idea that being good Christians is a tool to a happy marriage and a happy family and a happy life -- rather than following Jesus even if that means we have UNHAPPY lives because our loyalty to Him costs us everything else.<BR/><BR/>Sorry if that sounds evil! I think it is biblical. Try reading any of the four gospels as you ask yourself these 2 questions: 1) what does Jesus ask his disciples to DO to prove they're his disciples? and 2) what does he say they'll get as their reward for being His disciples?<BR/><BR/>I don't see how you can come up with the typical answers we have in what Christians DO and in what they get as their reward.<BR/><BR/>But let's go to lunch and talk about it!Maria Kettleson Andersonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06993376259173103142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17251610.post-36188260953224590162008-11-05T15:41:00.000-08:002008-11-05T15:41:00.000-08:00So what is your definition of "Legally the evangelical american dream"? sound evil.PGNoldfremonthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17892000468613456585noreply@blogger.com
