An Excerpt from Did Adam and Eve Have Belly Buttons?

“What made God so great?”

“Strictly speaking, nothing ‘made’ God great. This question is like asking ‘What was before time?’ There is no time before time, so you cannot talk about ‘before’ or ‘after’ time. The same holds true here. God made everything. Every beautiful thing you love, every work of art or nature, every majestic mountain range, every hero you have ever admired, every moment you have ever cherished in your memory – all the awesome breathtaking things you have ever experienced – are just dim reflections of their Creator. He is not ‘like’ those things. Those things are a little bit like him, for he is their author (Gn 1).”
