Skydivers Guide to Religion and the Meaning of Life This book is a philosophical examination of our belief systems and provokes a critical examination of religious beliefs, our way of looking at the world , our interpretation of the meaning of life, and our ultimate fate. It asks the question, how valid are our beliefs in the context of the society we are raised in, our family and peers own beliefs and the effect of mainstream religion and the State in modifying what we believe, or more to the point, what we say we believe. Controversy and a little irreverent humour is guaranteed. Is man the ultimate creation living in a Cosmos that has been provided by a supreme entity solely for his benefit in much the same way as we would house our pet rabbits in a cage or is that just too simplistic a view?
A few years ago, while taking a break from my volunteer church duties, I decided to simply seek God. I threw out all I had come to believe and started over. I felt compelled to keep a journal and, as a result, developed an interest in writing. As I felt I was making good progress, God saw fi t to accelerate that progress with an intense storm. It was not pleasant, but in it, I found Him. I had worked for Him, but now I was learning to walk with Him. For the purpose of correcting the market of our souls, God sometimes uses storms to bring us back to Him. The claim you will find in this book is that we have a very real enemy, whose goal is to distract us from God's best. Hudson Taylor once said, "God does not give us overcoming lives. He gives life to those who overcome." Though this is not a how-to' book, in it are the lessons I have learned about how Satan distracts, how God strengthens, and the incredible benefits available to those who learn them.
How is it that we can lose the wonder of God? Have we been so captivated by the mundane the things we can easily see and touch that we have lost sight of the godly things that require a little more effort to see? God tells us simply that we will find Him when we search for Him. It's not that it is hard; it's just that we have to decide and then put forth the effort to do it. In this book, you won't find a list; it is really nothing more than stories I have written of the wonder I found as I searched. I don't pastor a mega church. I am just an ordinary guy who draws an ordinary paycheck that has chosen to spend a good amount of his leisure time searching. God does not reserve His wonder for mega church pastors. He reserves it for those who will search. It is within the reach of any who are thirsty enough to come; and for those who choose to come, they will find the Lost Wonder'.
