The God Who is Already Here

August 20, 2012 by David Anderson 7 Comments

 There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle, or you can live as if everything is.  -Albert Einstein My colleague, Jonathan Thomas, preached a provocative sermon yesterday.

In ancient, agricultural societies it was regarded as the beginning of spring—the time for first turning the soil in preparation for March planting. There were prayers and […]

Your Own Time Zone

Clock

My daily almanac tells me this: On this date in 1883, standard time zones were established in the United States and Canada. The railroad was the driving force behind the establishment of consistent time zones, and it was called Standard Railway Time (SRT). Prior to the use of SRT, all towns set their own time, […]
