Each one of us either know our earthly father personally, or we have a vision of him from what we have been told about him. The same applies about our heavenly Father. We go to church and conventions, and listen to messages about how good our heavenly Father is and what He will do for us, yet many of us need to develop a personal relationship with Him. Some of us have a relationship with our heavenly Father; however, there is a need for a more intimate relationship, but we are afraid to draw closer because of our mistakes and unfaithfulness. God My Father talks about where we first began spiritually, our natural birth, and the stages to our rebirth in the Spirit. God’s unconditional love is shown through the struggles of life before and after rebirth as the author shares her spiritual journey and God’s mercy shown to her. Your heavenly Father loves you; He yarns to have an intimate relationship with you too.

This book presents a clear and critical view of the orthodox logical empiricist tradition, pointing the way to significant developments for the understanding of science both as research and as culture. It summarizes the present confused and highly polarized status of the orthodox philosophy of science. It exhibits clearly the fundamental metaphysical and global presuppositions and confusions that have led to this status. It provides a positive point of view from which progress can be made toward understanding science as research done by real scientists rather than science as exemplifying some prior epistemological program created by philosophers. And it leads directly to an understanding of science as a dynamic force within our society with consequences for the environment and public policy.
