though it emanate from our best minds. What about
people who proved that man could never fly?

Yet we had been seeing another kind of flight, a
spiritual liberation from this world, people who rose
above their problems. They said God made these
things possible, and we only smiled. We had seen
spiritual release, but liked to tell ourselves it wasn’t
true.

Actually we were fooling ourselves, for deep down
in every man, woman, and child, is the fundamental
idea of God. It may be obscured by calamity, by
pomp, by worship of other things, but in some form
or other it is there. For faith in a Power greater than
ourselves, and miraculous demonstrations of that
power in human lives, are facts as old as man himself.

We finally saw that faith in some kind of God was
a part of our make-up, just as much as the feeling we
have for a friend. Sometimes we had to search fear-
lessly, but He was there. He was as much a fact as
we were. We found the Great Reality deep down
within us. In the last analysis it is only there that He
may be found. It was so with us.

We can only clear the ground a bit. If our testi-
mony helps sweep away prejudice, enables you to
think honestly, encourages you to search diligently
within yourself, then, if you wish, you can join us on
the Broad Highway. With this attitude you cannot
fail. The consciousness of your belief is sure to come
to you.

In this book you will read the experience of a man
who thought he was an atheist. His story is so interest-
ing that some of it should be told now. His change of
heart was dramatic, convincing, and moving.
