Ken Mansfield, the United States manager for Apple Records (the Beatles\u2019 label), tells about his wonderful times with the Beatles before they broke up. Things went downhill after that until, in the mid-1980s, he hit bottom.<\/p>\n
Through a woman with whom he fell in love, Mansfield found Jesus. Before committing his life to Christ, he says Billboard<\/i> magazine was his Bible; record charts, his God; and prestigious positions, his purpose. \u201cThe Holy Grail was a Grammy, and the best table at the Brown Derby, the Promised Land,\u201d Mansfield says.<\/p>\n
After his conversion, he realized how hollow the way of the Beatles had been compared to the way of Christ. \u201cThey [the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit] are the authors of the map I needed for my journey,\u201d he wrote. \u201cI needed a chart, a journal with clear directions, a log to refer to\u2014a guidebook wherein their commands could speak to my wandering spirit. I needed a book so powerful that its very words could burn a living message into the absolute heart of my heart. I needed the irrefutable, holy Word of God, the Father Almighty, the Creator of the very seas I was lost upon!\u201d<\/p>\n
