Now a few important introductory notes to the book, The Porpoise Diving Life: Don’t Skip This Section.

God has an uncanny way of stepping in when things look like they’re petering out. It’s at times like these that God provides a glimpse of a new reality for the rest of us.

“Christianity is a mystery religion. When you’ve wrung the mystery out of Christianity,

you’ve wrung its neck.” Quote by Len Sweet

Christians and Christianity do not have all the answers that can be expressed in words. There are some things that simply defy explanation. One of the most powerful things a Christian can say to a person overwhelmed with the inexplicable in life is absolutely nothing.

Christians must renounce the tendency by some who attempt to glorify our God, my Jesus, through tragedy. They have fallen prey to the deception that attempts to explain the inexplicable by making the unexpected predictable, explainable, and eliminate the possibility of uncertain and unfathomable outcomes.

In the Christian life, there is a supernatural beauty hidden behind many of the perceived threats we have come to define in this world.
