Bob Goff, author of New York Times best-seller Love Does, did no have strong enough grades to get into law school. He sat on a bench outside of the Deans office for a week until the Dean told him to go buy his books, and they let him enroll. Goff spoke on Thursday night for the conclusion of the God, Where Are You in Culture? series.
