Two Six-Year-Old Buddies

Bill Godfrey uses a child’s toy held by two camper volunteers to picture the kingdom of God within marriage and family. He then sketches a Jungian map of the growing self. He closes at the New Hampshire Winni CFO in 1983 by inviting campers to an exercise on meeting their inner child.

Ten Seconds To Take My Breath

At the New Hampshire Winni CFO in 1983, Bill Godfrey describes praying a ten-second ultimatum to God for the courage to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. He then walks through the New Testament passages on receiving that gift.

Making Crosses Was a Dead Work

Bill Godfrey traces true faith to a Greek word meaning “resting upon.” He illustrates it with the crosses he once made for his choir, a dead work he mistook for obedience, in a talk to the New Hampshire Winni CFO in 1983.

The Homecoming Sarah Wrote at Fifteen
