I think I had one of those ... CCC gave 'em out by the boxful. Chucked it prior to a move, I believe.

the whole Jesus Freak movement was kind of wacky. i know quite a few people who were involved in it in the beginning... the ones i know dropped out of the scene that became well known. they founded organizations such as JPUSA - Jesus People USA - which is effectively a commune in the inner city of Chicago. They bought a building that housed a failing assisted living center in and have continued to allow all of the folks live there without any hassles. really a pretty neat group of people if you ever get the chance to meet them. they host one of the biggest music festivals in the world.
