About this ebook
Do we truly believe that honesty is the best policy? If you honestly answer in the affirmative you are a “unique”. The truth for the majority? No, we don’t like it because it has a tendency to threaten our complacent status quo. It rocks “the boat” so many of us Christians have found to be alluringly comforting. Well, honesty also resurrects lives so given the alternative I say “yes”! It is best!

I believe when it comes to the topic of "faith" it's important to know the heart of the writer you are reading. Hence, a little insight. If you've perused my writings I trust you have noticed that I'm an unapologetic non-conformist thus not religious per say. In fact, my greatest concern in life is to be summarily dismissed as a "religious person". My preference? A "real person" serving "a real God" who "really loves" THE WORLD. From day one of my sojourn with God it's always been a "real or nothing" mindset. I couldn't imagine any other way to approach the journey. Admittedly, never perfect and often awkward, but that has been and continues to be the narrow road I travel. At 27 years of age Jesus literally stole my heart. I did not join a "Club". I fell in love and entered the "Kingdom" of my Lover. To me, that was as glorious and serious as it gets! While my writings may not adhere to the status quo at times, I do hope at the very least they provide stimulation for serious contemplation. Blessings to all. Bill Taylor

The Older I Get - The Clearer I See
My goodness, a few more days and I’ll have eclipsed seventy one years of age. With the passing of time it is becoming increasingly obvious to me that I continue to change, and for the better I would sincerely hope. Experience should make us more defined
in our walk with God if we’re paying attention to our surroundings. Not written as a crusty old grumpy senior on his last legs. I have a very young spirit. Ageless in fact! But as my inevitable mortality ticks away towards my eternity, I’m finding a greatly heightened appetite for honesty
emerging in my soul. Not to be used as a hammer but rather a light! Honesty is the road out of darkness! We should embrace it as a friend not fear it as an enemy!
It is both interesting and concerning to me that Cristian Culture throughout history has always had within its frame work of operation a built in buffer of intimidation for those you choose to tell it like it is
. There was a time in the not too distant past when people who refused to bury their heads in the sand would have their heads removed. Also, burning them at the stake in full view for the public to visually ingest was a popular
