Introducing the Teleological Perspective of Christianity

Welcome to The More Excellent Way!

A few of us got together and decided it was high time to create a place on the Web where we could discuss a new way (actually it's about as old as it can get!) of understanding the Bible in its historical context.  So The More Excellent Way was born.

To kick us off, I've copied an introduction to The Big Picture (that's an easier way to say "the teleological perspective") of Christianity that I wrote some time ago.  It doesn't lay out the full picture, but it's a good introduction into a key concept that underlies The Big Picture.  That is, the "Now and Not Yet" nature of the Judeo-Christian story.
