"The Man Upstairs"

"Have you ever referred to God as 'the man upstairs'? Most Christians living in a secular society have unwittingly relegated God and all things spiritual to the 'second story' of the universe. A realm we cannot reach except through death. The effect of this is to banish God, along with the saints and angels from our everyday lives." -- Introduction to the program "Everywhere Present" on Ancient Faith Radio, c.2011
