One thing that brought me comfort was that deep down, I knew
Monnonis1n was true. I knew it with all my heart. There might have
been a chink in my armor of belief, but researching these questions
to provide answers would only strengthen my faith. Perhaps chat is
what gave me the courage to eventually engage the questions that
haunted me.
A month after that snow-blanketed day, as we began winter quar-
ter, Gary courageously broke the unspoken silence I had enacted
regarding the topic of our belief systems. Our affection for each
other was growing, and if we were going to spend ti1ne together, we
decided the most important area ofour lives (even if it wasn't govern-
ing our choices at the time) needed co be addressed. We both believed
the Bible to be the Word of God, so we agreed to study it together.
