I remember in 1976 when I was giving an hour talk in an outside Brooklyn Congregation while at Bethel and I went to the library and used worldly library material to completely rewrite my talk, afterwards I received thundering applause some people told me that was one of the best talks they had ever heard, but a local elder approached me and said he had the talk outline and could not follow along with me at all, I told him I had just rearraged the order of the outline, I was getting ready to leave Bethel and just wanted to get off the hook.
