I think you grow wherever God plants you. I hope I'm growing as a person of faith, as a Christian. That should be our number one objective this journey of life. That all starts with a personal intimate relationship with Christ and then being in prayer every single day about all of those things - being tenacious about it.

Everything I am I owe to my faith and secondly to parents who were old school.

Individual responsibility, hard work, paying attention in school, faith, family all these things are important.

Republicans and Democrats have used accounting gimmicks and competing government analyses to deceive the public into believing that 2 + 2 = 6. If our leaders cannot agree on the numbers, if 'facts' are fictional, how can they possibly have a substantive debate on solutions?

The measure of a man is not how great his faith is, but how great his love is. We must not let government programs disconnect our souls from each other.
