What is it about our specific belief in God and His wishes that makes us so angry at the specific beliefs of another? What is it about the teachings of our respective deities that makes us more right than the next person? Or more wrong?
Arise! Arise!! Arise!!! Christ beseeches you; Be born again, Tune-in to God; Meditate on His word; And be turned on, Talk to Him; Bask in His presence; And know Him, Be permeated with Him; And let your life’s aroma tell His story. 2 Corinthians 2:1...
...God is already out there in the world ahead of us. In our teaching, therefore, we must do more than merely help people learn how to be good church members. We are directors preparing people for roles in a drama that encompasses every part of their...

The other day, when I was deciding where to place a mountain range, how to make a river's flow detour around underground stalactite caves, and what precise color to give the sky at sunset, I realized I was God... or an artist and a writer.
