What If Truth Is Rejected Even When It Is Lived Well
It’s easy to assume that if something is true, and if it is communicated clearly, reasonably, and with goodwill, it will eventually be accepted.

The second type of shroud surrounds art, sometimes making something seem more artistic than it really is.

Creation
The actual picture is from the 'The Biggest Story Coloring Book' from Crossway. This is the 'Creation' story. Starting on the left the "Big Bang' like some say. I used purple and black crayon for the area area the sun, planets, and the comets. Then, came the fruits of the land and the fishes of the sea and beasts of the land.
