God’s Grand Game (video)

From a certain perspective, the universe can be seen as a cosmic playground in which all events unfold by the will and creative power of God. This creative work of God, who I believe is animating all events in the eternal present moment, might be fittingly described as God’s Grand Game. In this video, the… Continue reading
