Dedicated to all who seek God’s definitions of God’s concepts. May all such people have the kind of faith that is willing to think, that is willing to seek the courage of understanding, and that is willing to seek the wisdom to trust all God did and continues to do in Jesus Christ.   ~~David Chadwell
