Question
Hello,
I am interested in learning about Christianity. Can you recommend me a book to read that is about Christianity .. like the basics.. how it all started ….you know all of that. Everything I need to know about Christianity. A book that is simple and clear , no “ thy tho ‘ stuff in it. Thanx.
Hi Hoda,
THanks for this great question. Let me respectfully suggest that you read primary sources as you study christianity.... The Bible is the foundation of this movement...and no summary will be as good as the real thing. The Bible is a collection of 66 books. The best book to summarize Christianity and its principles is the Gospel of John. If you are reading King James ( and I suggest that you do) do not be afraid of the thees and thous. Thee ee and thou simply means "you". I hope that this is a help.
In Christ,
Pastor Don

Expertise
I believe that every word of the Bible is God-Breathed. This blessed book is the foundation of truth for faith and practice. If you ask this volunteer a question you will receive an answer from the Bible that is based upon a litteral, normal interpretation, taking into account the grammar and culture of the time.
Experience
I have been in the ministry for almosat 20 years. During this time I served as youth pastor, assistant pastor, counselor, and Senior Pastor. Currently I serve as a Senior Pastor for an independent fundamental Baptist Church in New England.
