Emphasis Preaching Journal

Not too long ago we all lived in a world in which faith, if not life, was regarded absurd. In the age of science, faith was considered unnecessary, because one had only to accept what could be proved. It was also the age of relativism in which there were no solid truths and all things were relative. For such an age, Samuel Beckett wrote his drama Waiting for Godot. Godot is the symbol for "little god" and all he could do for the world. Vladimir and Estragon are waiting for Godot. Apparently a night has passed in which Godot fails to appear.
