As a child, I grew up singing a song in church which ended with the lines, “As it was in the beginning / is now and ever shall be / world without end / amen, amen.” I loved the way the song sounded like a hope, a plea—not like something promised or certain. My new book’s title, World Without End, comes from this song.
