They’re young, they’re in love, they face each other across the table munching hamburgers and sipping cokes. They’ve got stars in their eyes and they’re in a cloud that “comes on” like a country lane in lilac time. Just now they don’t need anything or anybody else.

It’s beautiful while it lasts, but it doesn’t last, at least not this way. In some ways, things get better. In other ways, the repetition of everyday living (with the bills and the dishes and colds in winter and poison ivy in summer) catches up. And so people need a focal point where they can weigh one thing against another and really consider what it’s all about.

There happens to be a good place to ponder and to judge. . one that’s been around for quite a few centuries. The Church, in case you haven’t guessed.
