“As a girl rebelling against my father’s dogma, I had scoffed at Job for accepting God’s consolation of a new wife and new children. But I, most Joblike, when Giles was dead, embraced Kit, and when Kit conveyed that he was not coming back, it was the messenger himself, Ahab, whom I immediately loved. If Mother and Liberty were gone, then here was Susan to unburden me of love. Not to be loved but to love lightened my load of grief and gave value and direction to my life.”

“Don Clifford wrote in his book Nineveh Rising ... __________________________________________________ Dex added, “God blinded a generation specifically so we can develop it. God didn’t want people to have these flying machines until it fits into his plan. So, it’s God’s timing. The world isn’t falling apart; it’s falling together toward God’s plan. He wins in the end! He is planning something fantastic, isn’t he?”

“Most of us have probably read these chapters [1 Cor. 11--15] as if they were stand-alone works almost independent from one another. This is a by-product of the Western church's tendency to teach Bible verses as lonely snippets and chapters, as if they were self-contained silos, when we should be searching for Scripture's overarching truths. (pp. 1-2)”
