The Christian faith allows us to see further and deeper, to appreciate that nature is studded with signs, radiant with reminders, and emblazoned with symbols of God, our creator and redeemer.

We live on earth; our homeland is in heaven.

All the important things in life lie beyond reason... and that's just the way things are.
