Omschrijving

A New Tale of Two Cities - Living in the Age of Self and the Christian Mystery by Lawrence Clayton is a collection of articles culminated from his time as a newspaper writer and a historian. Comparing the modern-day we live in, he considers Christianity, historical and political roots, that put us in either camp. These camps are duty and entitlement. He points to various facets of history, coupled with insight into past eras and upheaval, as compared to how we are to live as Christians in a self-fulfilling world. A world where "duty" does not describe our generation, but "entitlement" and the right to enjoy "the good life" and "American dream" often, according to the Bible, do not profess what the world speaks.

Poignant questions, coupled with a vast historical background, alongside his own personal Christian ethic, reveal that history does in fact repeat itself.

This is one of those books that will educate, uplift and often reveals humor from a man who has an interesting background as a Christian, an immigrant, and many years of watching our world go through changes that are contrary to Christian beliefs, practices, and ethics.

He writes with candor and inspiration to help Christians gage their impact on the sphere and world they live in. He gives such depth to his articles, that readers will appreciate his historical and Biblical wisdom that can help Christian readers navigate a society that seems to be losing not only duty, but stands against the Bible, its morals, principles, and attitudes, that all speak - We are for ourselves, and are entitled.

He challenges each reader to inspect their own lives and ask, which one are you?
