Eric, your calling is certainly in part ministry. Too many people of faith have been left behind by lies, deception and out right willful ignorance mostly in the furtherance of power. Good speaks every day, and throughout all time. He did not go mute 2000 years again and he has spoke throughout the existence of time. My reference of choice along with the Bible and historical documents is The Book of Urantia, it changed my entire bitter attitude that the church was lying to me. I hope it provides some material for your article. Available on audible, kindle, IPhone and Print
