Hey! I found God!

Raised as a Fundamentalist Pentecostal preacher's son, I was told what to believe as the gospel truth from the inerrant scriptures and dogma from the Church. I lost my faith after 40 years of wandering in the wilderness of nonsense. I began to study sciences like Biology, physics, geology, anthropology and secular religious studies. After about twenty years of study I made the conclusion that God was present in all of us. Some of us recognized and endorsed this idea more than others. Philip Gulley, in his book, "The Evolution of faith", summarizes and confirms exactly what I found to be more nearly the truth about God, and religion!
