That journey has taken fifteen years, and it has led to this book. The path has not been easy. It came with risk and discomfort. Friends, pastors, and colleagues at times misunderstood my questions and my rebuttals of their proposed answers. Conversations didn’t always end well. That sort of thing happens when you demand that creeds and traditions get in line behind the biblical text.
However at age 72 I have a urgency to step across the threshold as a glimpse as to nature as to my dwelling place for eternity according to scripture .
