So close your eyes and tell me.......

I see half frozen bus workers straggling into the late portion of the Sunday night service after being stranded most of the day on a broken down bus on the side of the highways around Chicago.

I remember my first Sunday morning at FBC Hammond. I sat by two very large women who may have ridden the bus. I have nothing against large women or buses; however, the way they smelled was very memorable! It was ghastly.

That reminds me of a pastor of mine who visited FBCH and was giving a glowing report. He mentioned how all classes of people were welcome and specifically mentioned a couple not well of at all there sitting in their pew.. ......... and he actually said, "By that I mean literally sitting in their pew!"

When I was 13, I was SO proud when my folks gave me my first Schofield Bible. I went through two. It occurs to me that I might be able to make alot of money (you, probably too)

BECAUSE

I have all the famous mens' signatures in the back of my Bibles from those days. Anybody want to buy John R Rice's signature from me? (Just kidding)

I have Curtis Hutson, Jack Hyles and David Gibbs all on the same page. We could sell out the back of our trunks.

One of the signatures that I have is that of Lehman Strauss. Did you ever hear of him? He wasn't a preacher so much as a teacher and he wrote books on the different books of the Bible. I remember enjoying hearing him in my youth.

The name rings a bell. I looked him up and saw his program is on BBN. I'm sure I heard him when I was stationed in Virginia Beach.

I remember a bus kid puking on me on the way to church. I had to walk up to Dean Jorgensen to ask for permission to go back to the college and change. I also remember the look on his face when he caught a whiff of me.

I remember "science" class at HAC. The "instructor" had us write down the verses in the Bible that referred to animals - any animal. It was unreal.

Same teacher mandated that all numerical fours were to be closed at the top making a triangle that represented the trinity and pointed to God. Any open fours supposedly represented the devil's pitchfork and would immediately be given an incorrect mark for the work, even if the answer was correct.

Like it matters, but what year?
 
All that I can remember during my many visits there is the "having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof."
