The Majestic Mystery
Paperback Edition: 1
This biography is an autobiography of sorts. It is not about the authors teenage dream of running a mile in 4 minutes, only to give up the sport in his 19th year when one or two more years of intensive training would have seen him
achieve that goal. It is not about his youthful desire to fly aeroplanes for the air force that would have been stymied by his predisposition to airsickness. Neither does it explain why he spent his working life as a pharmacist when learning high school chemistry was a drudgery to persevere rather than enjoy. Nor does it explain why he spent years learning the political ropes, only to close the door when that door to a parliamentary seat was finally opened to him.

This is about the authors latter years when he had time to study in depth; when he began to wrestle with evolution and its apparent contradiction to creation, and about the season in his life when he finally came to realize that what really matters in life is understanding God, understanding His word, understanding His immense creative power, His awesome holiness, the reason for the creation of humans, and why evil exists.
The book runs across many seemingly disparate topics, yet in the authors humble mind, they all point in one direction, to a majestic mystery the mind of God.
