Favorite Verse/Quote
Romans 8:38
“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
The first line of M. Scott Peck’s book, The Road Less Travelled (1978), “Life is difficult.” Followed by the first line of his subsequent book, Further Along the Road Less Travelled (1993), “Life is complex.”
