“When the Lord saved me, He took the things that used to matter and replaced them with what truly matters for eternity, making those things much more attractive to me.”
“God was really, really gentle with me. “
“The decisions you make stay with you. Your sins, especially sexual sins, have ramifications for later in life.”
“Guys and girls complement each other, but are not meant to complete each other.”
“You can’t marry someone who is running in an opposite direction from you. You both have to be running towards the same goal.”

“People are not projects.”
“We aren’t called to be comfortable. We have to be uncomfortable - we have to be real, messy, and vulnerable.”
