Dr. Ellin Greene, of the University of Chicago, has said, "We get so quickly sidetracked from the simple story nature of our faith. We begin to think that theology saves us, that truth is somehow embodied in our theology of the Atonement, or our mastery of eschatological charts. But when Jesus

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if you were transported back in time 200 years? How would you explain the inventions we take for granted? If you spoke of computers or DVDs or Ipods or even television, people would think you were sort of strange. We are from the future. One day, the

Our brethren who art on earth,
Hallowed be our name.

"Carpe diem," said ancient Horace,
