Christianese: The Language of Those Who Believe in Jesus

"Christianese" makes plain the noteworthy words used by those who believe in Jesus (Christians). Christian words often stand apart in their definitions from conventional use of the same words. Written in a friendly manner, "Christianese" gives life to 285 words, in a style somewhere between an encyclopedia and a novel. Encyclopedias are too detail-filled to be read cover-to-cover.

It is therefore readable from any background, and illuminating to the reader no matter what the reader's religious standpoint.
