In our virtual reality world, truth can be hard to come by. So many distractions and deceptions vie for our attention that we can sometimes find ourselves lost and confused. But there is one thing that trumps them all, one thing that will set us on the right course every time: The unchanging, unwavering, everlasting authenticity of God.
