| Preface and Chapter 1 of 37 - The Edge of Belief |
|
(Sunday, October 11th, 2009--Madison, Wisconsin) As Ian co-pilots the eastbound business jet over Western Illinois, Bill lies with Christina, far to the north in a Wisconsin hotel. It is clear that Bill loves two women, in two very different ways, and that he has compartmentalized his two distinct worlds. There is but one small conduit through which ideas flow between the two compartments, and it is God. To Bill’s mind Christina is undeniably a lifesaver, and one that has been tossed into his churning and violent sea not by a human hand, but by none other than God himself. Back aboard the business jet, a volunteer medical mission is providing Ian, and his millionaire boss, Mac, a respite from the chaos of preparing for their much-anticipated press conference. Suddenly, however, an emergency transmission interrupts the late-night peace; a national emergency will requires the immediate clearing of all U.S. airspace for the first time since 9/11. Something horrible has obviously happened, but Ian and Mac have no idea what it is.

| Chapter 13 of 37 - Where One Door Closes |
|
(17 years earlier) Scared by a movie about evil and hostile spirits, Ian and Samantha contemplate the existence of such ghosts. The following morning, Ian is moved powerfully at church as he basks in spiritual time and lets flow his appreciation for his many blessings. Among them is his belief that his mother will - if not be saved - be gloriously reunited with his father. After church, the family discusses the expensive treatment option in Mexico. Matt successfully articulates the folly of it, but only after experiencing the anguish of walking the fine line between dashing his mother’s hopes and the truth. In the end, Janet Keppler passes away peacefully in her home, surrounded by the pure light of love from her boys. Where an earthly door had closed, Ian takes solace in believing that a perfect, heavenly gate has just opened to welcome his mother.

| Chapter 21 of 37 - True Myth |
|
The following Tuesday Ian and Mac fly Bishop Spong to the Atlanta Desoterica. Ian is thrilled by the opportunity to talk to the man whose books have profoundly shaken his traditional understanding of Biblical "truth." The Bishop eloquently articulates for Ian, in extensive and compelling detail, that a great many elements of the Christ story are clearly of mythological origin; they were never intended to be taken as literal truth.

| Chapter 26 of 37 - Dueling Revelations |
|
(Monday, November 25th, 2002) A few days later, Ian and Mac fly to the fourth-quarter Chicago Desoterica, and Ian leaves the opening cocktail party to have drinks with his old friend John. For old-times sake they choose the same bar near Division and Rush where he and John stumbled into Samantha back in 1992. The following morning, Ian experiences a profound revelation in Earl Doherty’s assertion that Jesus Christ never existed as a physical human being. That very same night, just after Ian’s illuminating experience in Chicago, Bill attends an event at his church back in Kalamazoo. What he learns there, courtesy of Pastor Mike’s scientist-friend Dr. Stanley Alcott, provides Bill a eureka moment that is every bit as powerful as Ian’s. Dr. Stanley shares with Bill's congregation that large-scale evolution is a false theory, and more importantly that the Bible is literally and precisely correct; the night is overwhelmingly affirming for Bill.
