The subject of what is wrong with churches is one that had been addressed often. However, this book attempts to take a personal view and perhaps be instructive for those who wish to go deeper in their faith than they are able to with their own denominational traditions.

It is hoped that the Christian who struggles in his faith will be able, through understanding, to find a path to greater Christ-likeness (the objective of Christianity) and obtain the elusive descriptors peace, joy, and love. For this reason the subject of  "useful" Christianity is addressed in contrast to formal, ritual, or traditional Christianity.
