The conversation with Edwin shattered a lifetime of Jerry's philosophy. He couldn't argue with the simple fact that
everything made had a maker. There wasn't a thing on the face of the earth that he could say didn't have some sort of maker; whether it was his car, his TV, his shoes, his belt, his telephone, his couch or his house. All around him were flowers, birds, trees, and thousands of different animals; things
infinitely more complex than anything man had made. He felt stupid that he had thought himself to be "intellectual" in his atheistic beliefs. He had also found an adequate answer as to the next obvious question—Who made God? That one was reasonably simple. God is eternal. He dwells outside of the dimension of “time” that He created.
A few days after this, at the insistence of his dying wife, Jeremiah asked Jesus Christ to be his Lord and Savior and began to attend church each Sunday until the time of Connie's death.
