Over the past several years, I've had to re-evaluate most of what I previously had been taught concerning God and Whom I perceived Him to be. You see, most everything I had learned, prior to my wilderness experience, came from the preconceived interpretations of all my past teachers. When we have a preconceived idea about something or someone, that perception becomes the lens through which we evaluate the event. As with most of us, our beliefs and interpretations are 'the gospel' until we begin to see the kingdom of God through the lenses of relationship.
