52 Card Pickup

Here’s a snippet of a Facebook conversation I had with my friend Jason, who comes from a Charismatic/Evangelical background and has been discovering the historic faith for about the last 6 months or so…

Jason
I love those little tid bits of beautifully layered truth

10:34pmKenneth
MAN, isn’t it LAYERED and never ending?

10:34pmJason
I guess all truth is multilayered applicable, for those w/ the eyes to see, ears to hear it, and a heart to receive it

10:35pmKenneth
Yea, but once you hit the jackpot, it’s multilayered all the way down!

10:35pmJason
how do you mean?

10:36pmKenneth
I mean, once you see the system, and all the pieces fall into place, and everything dovetails, it just gets prettier and prettier and more amazing all the time. I’ve been in the “catholic” way for about 20 years now, and there are no hiccups, just more and more beauty

10:37pmJason
I totally know what you mean. It’s like watching a game of 52 card pickup in reverse. Truth starts to stack up inexplicably out of what was the chaos of my mind.

    That’s awesome. Exactly how I felt when I first found the Doctrines of Grace expounded in Reformed confessionalism. And now even more so as I see it enacted in evangelical catholicism.
