I was out in the bars getting drunk on Friday and Saturday. I was hoping the people in church didn’t see me in the bars. I was hoping the people in the bars didn’t see me in church
So, I had a glass of wine and I got a buzz. I thought; “This is pretty good.” I was immediately addicted.
"I started to understand that was the void I was trying to fill is that I didn’t have Him in my life."
"I was dancing on a stage in Miami…. that’s when the Lord showed up."

When I got up after he prayed for me it was like I had gotten a shower on the inside and I was now clean.

"When I stood up after fifteen or twenty minutes something was different about me."
