"overwhelmed"
- Physically Broken
- Being physically broken for the first time in my life. My first incapacitation.
- Success
-
- I had heard John 3:16, read the Bible, grown up in church, and had Godly parents, but I never knew what freedom in Christ was all about.
- From Agnostic to Christian
-
- I learned something new to me: Christianity was about "having a relationship with God". I had never heard anything like that before. Before I thought Christianity was about being on your best behavior.
- Sunset Chasing
-
- How God showed me His love during a stressful summer.
- Utopia Crashing Down
-
- It was only at this point of total desperation that I found myself humbly on my knees before God, yearning for His comfort. The Sunday school truths finally became real and applicable.
- Approval
-
- Even though I brag about being independent, I am seriously dependent on approval
- Away to School
-
- I went off to college soaring like a bird without direction.
- Forget You, God
-
- God's pursuit of me even when I left Him on the fringes of my life

- Unexpected Death
-
- Searching for acceptance and meaning in the face of tragedy.
- Freshman Spiral

- Material Devotion
-
- I thought I had attained it all, a girlfriend, a sweet car I was building, lots of friends and acceptance to Virginia Tech.
- Tapestry
-
- tried everything from alcohol and staying up all hours of the night pursuing relationships...and nothing/nobody was meeting my deepest need
- Major Change
- It felt like a weight had been lifted off of my chest.
- From Addiction to Redemption
-
- I was content living in sin and worshiping God in my life at the same but soon found out this was impossible.
- Not Fashion Show Religion
- I was the president of this club, queen of that, captin of this.... In my mind I tried to rationalize my actions thinking, "I am a good person, I do all these good things, God MUST be proud of me."
