I surreptitiously stumbled across an author and a book that has become a nexus point in my spiritual life. The author is Dr. E. Michael Jones and the book is Logos Rising: A History of Ultimate Reality. What I could find out about the book intrigued me and fortunately, since it would take a while…

tFor some people, it is Christmas and Easter that are the centerpieces of the Christian faith. For me it is Holy Thursday and Good Friday.
