The contribution of Christians to the West is enormous. Christians were
the first the build hospitals. Initially it was mainly for Christians,
later it was for every one. The beneficiaries were the Muslims who
came to Christian lands to conquer them. Christianity produced leaders
like who served the poor and sick, which is unheard in other religions.
Christians have contributed to improve human life and reduce human
suffering. . . . . . The author presents Lord Jesus Christ as Saviour and how Christianity could change a person’s life in the last two chapters. It
is a wonderful book that should be read by all Christian thinkers and
use this book for evangelizing the intellectuals. All Christian

is becoming multimedia platform with 850 million photos uploaded to
Facebook every month and 7 million videos in 2009.
Each year begins with numerous New Year decisions or resolutions. But, they do not lost even for weeks. So, I thought of having “New Intentions” that is applicable for day-to-day life. These are not ‘New’ but ‘basics’ we often forget or neglect. It is more like code of conduct for my life. I share this, because it may be useful to some of you. As there are twelve months in a year, I have listed 12 intentions that could be picked up and focused during each month.
