"Train up a child in the way, he should go, when he is old, he will not depart from it."
"My mother was an example of a Christian saved lady to me."
"Somehow along the way, I became the total opposite of my mom and everything she instilled in me."
"I encourage parents to obey God, his Word, do your part. God will do the rest."
"Thank God for the proper timing and for making a way out for me in that situation!"
"God will bring you through, you’re through."
