If you have been following the podcast over this past year that you would have heard about my son, Chandler, and his struggles with Crones Disease.  When the doctor diagnosed him, I remember asking if he was sure.  The answer was, Chandler is the definition of Crones.  After many tests and biopsies from other physicians that confirmed the diagnosis we got Chandler established with a specialist close to his college.  Last month Karla and I traveled down to collect Chandler from college and take him to the hospital for some follow up testing.  The following video tells this story.

I love to read and for the last few years I have been digesting tons of material from apologists and other authors so that I could have the best explanation of God.  Whether in my vocational life, church or with family I have always tried to have an intelligent explanation of my world view.  All that changed the moment Chandler’s doctor walked in the room and said, “I can’t explain it.”  Those four words help me understand that it’s in the unexplainable where you find the best way to explain God.  Chandler is a real young man who was dealing with a real incurable disease and now he is completely healed.  Try explaining away that!  I can’t explain all the mysteries of God, but I have been an eye witness to His great love, mercy and grace.  He is real and He cares deeply for you.
