The first chapter of View from the Barn Door reveals an important feature that leaves a lasting impression. How important are the words that Jesus spoke? The answer is: Nothing else begins to compare Reading, studying, and quoting Jesus' words can bring personal satisfaction and calmness to the reader. Most of us have never heard Jesus' actual voice in person, nor have we been in Jesus' inner circle of friends for three years as were the disciples, nor have we seen his transfigured physical form as the three disciples did on the Mount of Transfiguration. As such, we are left with only our imagination when we think about the sound and texture of his voice, and the shape and beauty of his physical being. All is not a total loss though, because we are able to repeat the words of Albert Einstein: """"Imagination is better than knowledge."""" Imagine the confusion that would exist in the world today if Jesus had not come and spoken to us. His words mean everything to us. His words sustain the world and everything contained therein. Jesus said: """"Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away."""" Mark 13:31 | View from the Barn Door by Roger Setterdahl, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
