Art Text:
You cannot cram the glory of God into something so thin as a fact. –Madeleine L’Engle

Statement:
At a conference, I heard author Madeleine L’Engle tell of her response to a man who asked her if the Bible were true. She replied to him, “You cannot cram the glory of God into something so thin as a fact.” I treasured her answer and made this painting in response.
