Meeting the Word in the World


Book Description

The handiwork of God (Psalm 19) and the workmanship of God (Ephesians 2:10) are mutual evidence of our Creators power and love. His written scripture and the scripture of nature both came into being though the WORD;All things were made by him and without him was not anything made that was made.(John1:3) When we read the Bible in the beauty of nature, new insights about Gods wonderful plan for our lives become living, reliable facts. This eternal wisdom touches our souls, and without it, we become less than gnats, with neither origin or destiny.
