My father was a writer. He wrote all of his life, inflicting upon many of us his novels, plays, articles, essays, and self-help books. Some were marvelous; some merely well-intentioned. But of all the things he wrote, his journal is his legacy: by turns wise and bewildering, it neared 1,100 type-written pages when he died in 2010. Although perused many times, this is the first time it will be read - cover to cover, page after page.

Old Testament People
The Old Testament people thought they had heard it all. They felt in possession of a fullness of what God has to say. Then along came Jesus. He came saying some old things and some new. He had new revelations, and came being God's son. Is this the end, or is there maybe a newer revelation, yet to come? Are we thinking the fullness has arrived, that we possess it? Maybe a time is coming when we will be the Old Testament people giving way to something more?
