As Arnie grew older, his sneer grew larger, and to those in his church, it became almost a historical landmark. It crawled up the right side of his face, exposing his back teeth and causing his right eye to lower, as if he were winking. Families who passed him on the playground or at the shopping mall stood in awe at the sight of it. Parents stared. Children turned away in fright. Often a mother, grabbing her son by the arm, would point to Arnie and say, ¿See that kid? You are to have nothing to do with him. Do you hear?¿ Feeling as though he has a new lease on life, teenager Arnie Shultz is all set to begin another school year¿his freshman year of college¿preaching at a Catholic school on the California coast. But Arnie¿s gospel is different from the one Jesus taught¿while Jesus brought the Kingdom of God to earth, Arnie brings his own vision to campus.
