Shepherd

from Word on Wednesday with John Mason Hosted by John Mason: Speaker and writer. President of the Anglican Connection; Commissary to the Anglican Arc

Frederick Buechner, American pastor and theologian, in The Magnificent Defeat, commented: "We all want to be certain, we all want proof, but the kind of proof we tend to want - scientifically and philosophically demonstrable proof that would silence all doubts once and for all - would not in the long run, I think answer the fearful depths of our need at all ... It is not objective proof of God's existence we want, but the experience of God's presence." Find out more in this podcast.
