When I was in high school, I remember a Sunday School teacher telling us about life as a Christian.
“It’s simple,” he said, “but it’s not easy.”
Turns out that Christianity is not simple. Turns out that right thinking and right living in a complex world is not simple. Turns out that, coming after two millennia of Christian history, a simple doctrine that fits onto a 3-inch tract can only exist by ignoring the majority of Christian thought and experience.
