Am I the only person who ever gets frustrated with Christianity?

Am I the only person who thinks a big gulf is growing between Jesus and Christianity?
What if Christianity becomes the greatest danger to the mission of Jesus?

However, as I look through the New Testament and even through the OT, I see that God's salvation is a global, inter-cultural movement. I think salvation is about individuals... and communities... entire cultures... and even creation. I think it is much bigger than that, even...
