      All paintings within, by van Gogh and Rembrandt, were taken from the public domain.

      All apologies to David Bazan, who’s Pedro the Lion album WINNERS NEVER QUIT features the song Slow and Steady Wins the Race which is quoted in this treatise. It is available for purchase at http://www.davidbazan.com and it is the perfect soundtrack to my odd ranting.

      All gratitude to Henri Nouwen for his many books especially THE RETURN OF THE PRODIGAL SON: A Story of Homecoming. That book is the basis for anything good found in my little piece of agitprop.

      All profits from this brief eBook go directly to help fund my sister Jessica’s teaching mission in Africa.

      Thanks to Hannah Lay, Jacob Dummeldinger and my lovely wife Elizabeth for bringing the most interesting elements of the original landscape talk to life on stage.

      Thanks to Matt Russell for recording this talk for me. Such foresight, my friend!

      Thanks to Brian Sanders for lending us your copy of Nouwen’s book. I don’t think it was returned. Sorry.
