Hey! Good to hear that! You deserve a new life and someone to love you. Hope it works out. What do you mean, "Has anybody had anything like this happen?" You mean be in love? Or feel like you're getting a new start in life? Yes, definitely.

About turning her on to the basic Mo letters well, might wanna let that one wait. Like you said, you don't wanna confuse her faith in Christ. Yeah, I know, Mo DID teach some good stuff in the early days, but he got it from the great Bible teachers. He admitted that too, remember? Even gave credit to Fred Jordan. Even "Diamonds of Dust" was plagarized from a poem some Christian poet wrote. (He never admitted that though.)

There are some very cool books written by some Christian writers, and these guys were deep waters. Deep waters without "strange truth" somehow ending up in the pure water. And seeing as how those guys were the wells Mo dipped his wisdom out of, hey, why not go back to the orginal sources? Seeing as how you've had...oh....twenty, thirty years of MLs, you might even want to supplement your diet and try some other foods.

Let's see: what can I recommend? Have you got a copy of "The Grace Awakening"? Anybody got any books might be good to read? Can anybody send him any books? Books cost, and I get the feeling like most of us you don't have a lot of cash, Kerry.

Take care. Wishing you the very best!
