Some Forty Years Beyond High School

As many of us have now aged beyond the point where we had observed our grandparents to be "really old people" it follows that we've taken the initiative in the grandest democratic tradition to redefine Old Age as somewhere beyond the ionosphere or otherwise outside the place in time where most will really care.

What really deserves care? That which carries forward beyond a given person's earthly life: matters of wisdom, questions as to the Judgment, considerations as to reality that exceeds a material existence.

Finding a variety of opinions here in the Bay Area and elsewhere in California about truth, spirituality, and the nature of God we have more than enough distraction from the love God has for us, the opportunity to be reconciled to Him through the completed sacrifice achieved by Jesus Christ, and His abiding presence for those who will trust Him.
