Scrubbed fore and aft before church as a boy, Glenn Crafts learned early how to look presentable, which is the habit he is trying to break in the New York Warwick CFO in 1978. Lazarus had been dead four days and the sisters said so out loud, and a student who could never pray about a certain thing was exactly the point.
Glenn Crafts walks Psalm 23 phrase by phrase as a map of the Christian life. He tells of a man wearing a dove lapel pin who read Matthew through Romans after twenty-four years of unbelief, and of a camper whose wide-open-eyed praying drained his weariness away. Recorded on a Friday night at the New York Warwick CFO in 1978.

A man who came back from clinical death described a panel of judges who loved him, and Norman Elliott sets that beside Rufus Mosley’s reading of the sheep and the goats sorting themselves. The only judgment anyone faces is self-administered, he tells the New York Warwick CFO in 1978, and he once spent a night in Carnegie Hall uncontrollably in love with a room full of strangers.

An old Scots farmer named Sandy explained the whole gospel to Norman Elliott by way of a manure pile, and it has never been improved on. Peter answered a question about love with the smaller of two words and was accepted anyway, he tells the 1978 New York Warwick CFO, which is roughly the offer on the table this week.

A young Jewish convert asked at her baptism for the blessing she remembered from the synagogue, and Glenn Crafts has used the Aaronic words ever since. He takes the 1978 New York Warwick CFO through them phrase by phrase and then has everyone bless the person beside them.

His father called it “righteous indignation” and died of a bleeding ulcer, and Glenn Crafts eventually took a secular psychology book’s advice and punched a pillow shouting “take that.” Anger is a given emotion to be owned and released rather than suppressed, he tells the 1978 New York Warwick CFO. He can still name the committee meeting where he got hooked nose to nose.

At the New York Warwick CFO in 1978, Glenn Crafts reminds them that the disciples were ordinary men still smelling of fish, and that the promise was “I will make you become.” A ninety-six pound speed freak, a Berkeley roommate baptized under a new name, and a lectern card underlined years earlier all say the same thing about who does the making.

Norman Elliott argues that faith arrives only when God strips away the securities and self-images a person leans on. He admits that he once prayed for a woman’s healing with no faith of his own at all, in this talk to the New York Warwick CFO in 1978.
