Seeing More of God
What is it like to know God? Each of us has part of the answer.
By David Hazard
When I was in high school, one of my teachers talked openly about being a “born-again” Christian. It was 1971, and the “Jesus movement” was still new in the east. People were genuinely curious. Inevitably the question came: “What’s it like—what does it feel like—to know God?”
He didn’t mention finding “peace” or “joy.” In fact, he was a serious man who, some days, fumbled and troubled with his curriculum notes and stuttered.
