"Summing up: God is alive, well and working everywhere" by Skip Johnson, religion editor

"For the past five years I have earned a living by writing about the difference God makes.

"Finding the stories has been easy. They are everywhere. I've found them in houses of worship, but more so in the lives of ... people of all colors and economic situations, people who attend worship services regularly and people who almost never do, people known around the world and people unknown in their own neighborhoods....

"The pollsters indicate the trend toward spirituality will continue and increase as a major new form of religious faith flourishes in this decade and helps guide the world into and through the next millennium....

"I'll close on a personal note of thanks to the hundreds of people who have opened their hearts and souls to share with me, and this newpaper's readers, the intimate details of their experiences with God. It is through you, above all, that God's aliveness in this world is most plainly evident."
