For some the idea of being adopted by God is a stumbling block. MacDonald was one of those. He tears into Scripture to represent God as a loving Father and not just some nice guy who picks up strays.
We explore some images to help us grasp the, invisible to us, fourth dimension of time. Giving our attention to the ideas may help us begin to see our world in a new way.
