I confess: I have no easy means of making the sudden eruption—after 9000 years!—of a volcano in Chile early this Spring relevant to Faith & Family as such. It’s just I’d never heard of volcanic lightning before and the photo is so stunning, I had to share it. Beautiful and frightening. (Who was it said the Beautiful is a dimension of the Terrible?)
