When I left Columbus in 1988 we stopped meeting with the LCs, because I got a job that transferred me to the middle of the California Mojave desert. There was a LC in Victorville CA then, about 90 miles away, but I had no heart to be with them. So from 1988 to 1998, I think I was being dried out (while mainly pursuing career). Eventually, at the end of that period, I was quite desperate and open to the idea that there was something of God outside of the LC. That's when He began to show me His love was the source of all He does.

So I don't know that He has to dry everyone out after an LC experience, but that's what He did with me!
Opps - correction on this - should read "God brought me to the LC in Berkeley back in the early 70s," not early 80s.

I’m don’t know how to draw digital cartoons, but I’m envisioning one emerging from the discussion we’ve been having about what contending for the faith is:

Saints from all over Christendom are gathered to contend in an athletic competition (say a soccer/futball game) and MOTA shows up in a knights costume ready to lance them.

That would be the "MOTA" Comic Strip by Cal.
