Grace Island
I graduated from high school back in the ‘dark ages’ (June 1980) having just rededicated my life to Jesus Christ that January. I gave my heart to Christ when I was 12 years old but tried running my teen years myself. At 17 years old, I was tired of failed resolutions, and I realized I needed the Lord to help me live for Him. I really had no long-term ambition for a career, but I knew I needed a little better grip on God’s Word and thought Word of Life Bible Institute would be a good move for one year. I had no idea what was ahead, and my $90 taxi ride from Albany Airport to Pottersville was proof I wasn’t prepared for how far outside my comfort zone God was taking me. Jack Wyrtzen and Word of Life Bible Institute blew my mind that first year. I was listening to God’s Word and surprised by how much I was learning. Class after class, I was overwhelmed by how much God’s Word was making practical sense.
