EXACTLY.....
For the first 5 or 6 years, I had a zealous excitement for the rock of ages. I expected to see
joy, healing, deliverance, walking and leaping and praising God.
YET.....it didn't happen. And, especially that year when wierwille announced a healing service would
be held that night in the big top. I had high expectations of the possibilities. So, when the time
came....and wierwille called for those who sought deliverance to come forward, he stayed at the
microphone and summoned the advanced class grads to come forward to minister. Wierwille and his
top-tier leaders stood on stage and watched the proceedings. Religious hierarchy smug.....
The cRock of Ages became a smugfest of trivial pursuits for the little people.
The smug of golf cart drivers darting hither and yon....while the crowds walked in the rain and mud.
With each passing year, more mothers with babies and toddlers attended......yet, twi was stuck on stupid.
In the 1980s, the teenagers were bored out of their wits......still, the spiritual elite provided little
except a teen stage in the west woods. Oh my God.....the clueless are in charge!?! Who organizes an
event to do THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN? Answer: Wierwille and his cult.
Gawd, I miss those days of suit, tie and bible while walking thru a muddy cornfield
toward a hot, humid, hard seat in a big top oven.
