About this Quote

This quote by E. Stanley Jones speaks with the power of conversion and how it can change one's life. Conversion is the procedure of altering one's beliefs and values, and in this case, it is the procedure of turning away from estrangement from God and becoming a son of God. This altered relationship with God has a causal sequence, altering one's relationship with oneself, with other people, with nature, and with deep space. This improvement is profound and can result in a life of higher peace, delight, and function. Conversion is an effective tool that can help us to become more connected to God and to the world around us.
