We naively invited them over to our eclectically furnnished apartment in Charlotte, NC.  Early GoodWill, I think was the style of decor we were looking for.  At any rate, this young zealous couple, armed with a few memory verses, a couple of semesters of Bible College, and a sincere desire to communicate the love of Christ clearly with us; knocked at our Weyland Avenue (Marsh Apartment) door.

As we fondly watched them react to our less than traditional decor and incense fragranced apartment, we munched on buttered popcorn with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young Deja Vu album side one wafting in the background.

I was pleased when Tony, with his Bible college haircut, and straight “preppy” clothes, took note and special interest in my “religious” booktable.  There underneath a framed photo of Jeffrey Hunter looking like a European blue-eyed Jesus from the movie, King of Kings, was the beginning of my theological library.  The Greatest Thing in the World, by Henry Drummond, Imitation of Christ, by Thomas a Kempis, a well worn copy of Good News for Modern May, New Testament, a (stolen?) Gideon Bible, several treasured copies of Awake Magazine and a Watchtower Witness rag, and finally two multi-colored Hari Krisna Magazines.
