Charles Dickens and his faith

Charles Dickens wrote to his children about the basis of his book, The life of our Lord,


"My Dear Children, I am very anxious that you should know something about the History of Jesus Christ. For everybody ought to know about Him. No one ever lived who was so good, so kind, so gentle, and so sorry for all people who did wrong, or were in any way ill or miserable, as He was.And as he is now in Heaven, where we hope to go,
and all to meet each other after we are dead, and there be happy always
together, you never can think what a good place Heaven, is without
knowing who he was and what he did."

Every Christmas he read from this book to his children.This book was written by him for his children , without the intention of publication
