"""Greg asked me one day to read an essay. . . . Little did I know he was setting me up to preview what would ultimately become the thoughtful, insightful, and adventurous search for the best that life has to offer. . . . Within this complete collection, no matter where you are in life's journey, you will find ideas, stories, examples, and reasons to recognize the power of unity versus conflict in human community and existence."" --Sam Melchior, Teacher and Environmentalist ""Greg's book should liberate anyone who was raised in a very conservative religious environment, was educated in a scientific curriculum, and has experienced living and working in today's world. Greg's writings span a broad spectrum of his experiences in religion, education, science, and history, which he skillfully calls upon in several essays where he sees the world as it is."" --Roger Hubele, Farmer and Church Leader ""Greg is trying to free us from some of the fundamentalist ideas that were written centuries ago, when there was little known about our world and how it works. . . . Greg is attempting to open our minds to a better understanding of this whole process for the benefit of all mankind. We have to respect each other and all of our differing opinions formed from our own life experiences."" --Morris McCall, retired Family Doctor ""Matchsticks Contemplating Eternity leaves no question off the table. With engaging essays, Greg Brown successfully employs logic, science, philosophy, and religion as sparks to ignite the enlightenment of finite human minds in understanding infinite universal questions. Uppermost, Brown finds reason for hope in this illumination of the universe."" --Donald E. Pitzer, Professor emeritus of History, University of Southern Indiana"
