"As we learn about our ancestors and attempt to gather up the scattered fragments remaining from their lives, we are impressed with how quickly the many details of life's drama - its joys and sorrows, it struggles and triumphs, its dreams and disappointments - are all erased. Often all that remains of our ancestor's stories are colorless statistics: when they were born, where they lived, the children they bore, and when they died. We come away with a sense of our mortality and the conviction that nothing of all that happens under the sun truly matters, save a life sincerely and devoutly consecrated to Jesus Christ."
