Arrr, matey! This Lent, the bold American Christians be sailin' back into the fray, makin' quite the ruckus!
2025-03-05
Arrr, matey! Columnist David Marcus, a loyal follower of the Good Book, be spoutin' that Christianity in these here colonies be makin' a grand comeback! Aye, it be catchin' more wind in its sails than a galleon in a storm!
Ahoy me hearties! Gather 'round as I spins a yarn about the state o' Christianity in the good ol' U.S. of A. A recent survey be showin’ that about six out o’ ten scallywags still be callin' Jesus their captain! With Lent upon us, it be a fine time to ponder how to keep the faith shipshape.Now, Lent be that mystical time when landlubbers reflect on their misdeeds and make sacrifices, all in anticipation of that grand resurrection celebration. But ye see, it be the young whippersnappers comin' back to the fold, just like those born in the 90s. They be lovin' them some traditional practices, perhaps shunning the guitar-strumming priests for a bit o' Latin!
What be causin' this resurgence, ye ask? It seems Christianity be makin' waves again, with prayer apps and loud proclamations in public spaces. The youth be seekin' more than what TikTok offers—church be fixin' their loneliness quicker than a cannonball flyin’ at a rival ship!
So, as we sail through this Lenten season, let us not just reflect on our faults but strive to bring the Good News to the masses! For it be high time we restore our faith and our society, lest we end up adrift in a sea of confusion. May our spirits rise higher than the sails on a galleon, and may we all share in a meaningful journey till Easter morn! Arrr!
