Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book was slowly birthed across the years as the author has listened to people use the wonderful gift of language. Language can be seriously handicapped by provincial usage. Time influences the use of words. This author remembers when gay meant joyous and aids were something that helped you. As a public speaker I have moved among many denominations and listen to the strange language spoken in church. Just as attorneys have legalese and doctors have doctorspeak, Christians have Christianese. I really wonder if the world around us understands a word we say. I seriously doubt if we know what we are saying to one another. What you are about to read is a tongue-in-cheek endeavor to promote mutual understanding among Christians. The book is entitled, "Which Being Interpreted Means," because most of the time what we are saying is not really what we mean. Read to laugh; read to open your eyes and learn how little we really communicate.
