A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying, "You Are mad; you are not like us." -St Anthony the GreatThis book was written by co-author Mark Sundy (wrote chapters 3 and 4 and most of the conclusion) and co-author, Craig Daugherty, (wrote chapters 1 and 2 and most of introduction) to discuss the topic of "sin."We have a serious problem. A deadly problem, if you will. It is called "sin."St. Anthony the Great was a prophet; born in 251 in Egypt and is known as the Father of All Monks. Despite the fact that he lived over 1700 years ago, St. Anthony described the culture of today almost perfectly in the above, succinct quote. Our Western, American culture today refuses to deal with sin. We have politicized it, demeaned it, watered it down, and assigned it to the trash heap of political correctness. In fact, as a culture, we would deny the existence of any absolute truth, of any moral compass, that would stand as a beacon of truth and holiness and personal responsibility. Any person that would dare to state or believe an absolute truth, a morality steeped in the foundations of a Creator who established our world, is often described, at best, as a fanatical believer in fairy tales and, at worst, a bigoted buffoon filled with extreme hate and prejudices.
