Before he accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior, Pastor Kul Bal (full name Kuldip Singh Bal) had accomplished feats of physical and mental discipline involving other religions especially in Hinduism, Sikhism and various marshal arts. Kul Bal was quite content with mediocre religion and did not want to rock the boat of life with any serious issue. However, Kul Bal was drinking all the time and had a bad temper which he lost frequently. He would be moody for days, and Elaine, his wife would suffer the blunt of his sharp tongue inspired by a selfish and egoistic mindset. . . When he returned to his job as an instrument technician on an oil rig in the North Sea off Scotland, he told Elaine she could pursue Christianity as long as she did not force him into it. Rules were simple – no preaching to Kul Bal and no church visits.
