This is a serious message to the church. The Lord gave this deep revelation of the heavenly home and his desire to take us there just after getting rid of Judas. This message was meant to be a comfort to the remaining disciples who had been true to him while he walked on earth. Jesus does not share deep secrets with everyone. He gives all men a chance to choose him, but he does not force himself on any man. Judas had walked with the Lord for three-and-a-half years. He had seen all the miracles, and when he was sent out to cast out demons, he also had demonstrated power under special grace, but he made a choice to walk away from that grace and betray the King of kings. He is one man who kissed the door to heaven but still went to hell. How sad.

Our Fine Romance is the true story of two young people growing up separately during the London Blitz of 1940, and their subsequent evacuation into the English countryside. Following their unusual meeting, courtship and marriage they emigrated to 'Apartheid' South Africa. Three years and two children later, for financial reasons, they made the risky decision to move to Northern Rhodesia, close to the war ravaged Republic of Congo. During their life there in the 1960's the 'Wind of Change' was sweeping through the Colonial African States. Many British territories became independent during this time and, after another child and 10 years in Africa, they decided to start a new life on the west coast of Canada. With the addition of a fourth child and successful careers in their adopted country, Maureen and Michael are both now retired and living in Delta, British Columbia, but a recent turn of events has lead to their biggest challenge yet. Easy reading. Maps and many photos.
