Best Thing Someone Said to You: I see Jesus in you. Life Motto: “I Can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.” Phil 4:13 Three People I’d Like to Meet:Former President George W. Bush, Steven Curtis Chapman, Garth Brooks My Hero: My parents and grandparents. One of My Greatest Experiences with God: One Summer while in College, I was leading worship at a youth camp in Dry Creek, Louisiana.On the very first night of camp, the Holy Spirit fell in a powerful way.People were kneeling at the altar, praying, weeping, and many were coming to be saved as we worshipped.About 50 minutes into our worship set, the camp pastor approached me and said he was not going to preach his sermon because he didn’t want to stop the move of the Holy Spirit.He led us in a powerful invitation time and even more were saved and touched by God that night.Awesome times. Most People Don’t Know This About Me: I used to cut my own hair and also own cake decorating tools.
