SPIRITUAL ENRICHMENT WEEK The week of February 2-5 was Spiritual Enrichment Week at Mississippi College, and the 1981 theme was Ordinary People.” Thanks to the organizational efforts of the steer- ing committee headed by Clark Stewart and Tracy Pea- cock, MC students were able to hear a variety of speakers address topics ranging from confusing cults to career choices. The diversity of personalities on the campus was obvious; the group included a musician, Wayne Watson; a seminary professor, Dr. Thomas Starkes; a pro football team chaplain, Rev. Tony Evans; a pastor, Dr. Altus New- ell; a former foreign missionary, Mrs. Marjorie Kelly; and a medical doctor, Dr. David Vanlandingham. Reverend Ev- ans began the week in Monday’s chapel by calling for Christians to go to a higher power in order to put their Humpty Dumpty world back together. For those who went to the Monday night BSU “Gathering,” Wayne Wat- son provided a memorable evening of music and testion- ary. Tuesday’s chapel featured Dr. Starlees telling how a Christian’s best offense against cults is to put Christ’s love in action. In Wednesday s chapel with Mrs. Kelly, students witnessed firsthand the potential for emotional explosive- ness when Christianity and Islam come into confrontation. Dr. Newell closed the chapel on Thursday with the prom- ise that Christians would find the strength to be extraordi- nary in the midst of the ordinary. A full schedule of semi- nars, classroom visits and dormitory discussions provided students with other opportunities to hear how they could explore their “ordinariness.” Hopefully, talking about ex- pressions of the Christian life that often fall into disuse renewed the realization that God’s power gives people the strength and the will to be extraordinary. 22

Fortunately, the less than inspiring moments in Chapel are bal- anced by intermittent humorous announcements and occasional dynamic speakers. Incredibly, every once in a while a Chapel pro- gram produces enough comments to make even the most apathetic senior say, “I wish 1 had been there. Chapel has one other position characteristic, as least as far as the administration is concerned if students didn’t have Chapel to complain about, they might start grumbling about the food in the Cafeteria. 21
