On the road today I came unexpectedly upon a major book sale being held in a small town about an hour and a half away. I happened to see a sign on the road advertising the sale, and since I had a few extra minutes, I wandered in. I picked up Willliam F. Buckley Jr.'s Nearer, My God: An Autobiography of Faith which I expect to enjoy perusing. I also picked up Philip Yancey's Reaching for the Invisible God. I read a few pages a moment ago and came across this quote from C.S. Lewis: "The Christian has a great advantage over other men not by being less fallen than they, nor less doomed to live in fallen world, but by knowing that he is a fallen man in a fallen world." Of this Yancey says, "That recognition forms my starting point in understanding a journey to know God." I appreciate that starting point. It liberates us from a lot of false notions and expectations. I shall look forward to reading this book.
