the story of any people reveals a pervading fascination with things divine. We are no exception. Some try to build walls round the city of the human spirit, but the divine cannot be kept out; it is within, at the heart of our being. Our questions cannot be suppressed, any more than our experiences can be denied. One such question is who is God? It is a very practical question, really, for on its answer depends the way we are to live our lives in the light of our religious experiences.
