How did you become a Christian?
I grew up in the church and hated following rules that brought me guilt and dissatisfaction.  After 17 years of church I decided that I didn't need it as well as the impersonal God that came along with it.  I turned my back on religion, began to experiment heavily with sex, drugs and alcohol and became an Atheist for about a year.  That year was the loneliest year of my life and left me with absolutely nothing.  By December of 2006 I realized my need for God, that my life was meaningless without Him and that He had a plan for my life all along.  I decided to give my life to Christ and have been a Christian ever since.  It's been a daily struggle, and I've gone through much pain even after being a Christian, but it's truly been the best decision of my life.


What did God teach you this summer?
To deeply pray and trust Him no matter what the circumstances look like on the outside.  He loves to let the odds stack up against Him ya'know.  And just then, when you think everything is about to go to hell and failure is surrounding you, He comes through.  :)

When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be whatever Bill Gates was. $$$$chaa-chiiinggg$$$$

my guns

If you could be a bug, what kind would you be?
I'd be whatever type of bug that Darwin was looking at years ago near the Galapagos Islands and I would go back in time to tell him that I do not have the same common ancestor as human beings do.

Batman or Spider-man?
Batman, hands down.


Would you rather be steam-rolled feet first or put into a wood chipper feet first, and why?
I would rather be steam-rolled in the hope that when all is said and done I would end up looking like a cartoon character. A wood chipper would mutilate me.  That's no good.  :/
