Finished Reading “Heretics”

  "G. K. Chesterton, the "Prince of Paradox," is at his witty best in this collection of twenty essays and articles from the turn of the twentieth century. Focusing on  "heretics" - those who pride themselves on their superiority to Christian views - Chesterton appraises prominent figures who fall into that category from the literary and art worlds... those who hold incomplete and inadequate views about "life, the universe, and everything." He is, in short, criticizing all that host of non-Christian views of reality, as he demonstrated in his follow-up book Orthodoxy. The book is both an easy read and a difficult read. But he manages to demonstrate, among other things, that our new 21st century heresies are really not new because he himself deals with most of them." (Goodreads)

His Presence

"My Presence shall go with thee." (Exodus 33:14)

Cherish no doubt of it,
Ever abide in it,
Travel about in it,
Rest and reside in it,
Walk in the midst of it,
Work in the might of it,
Let your whole life be lived
Full in the light of it.

(Beatrice Cleland)
