I was working at the Bridge recently, and we were at a neighborhood night. Neighborhood nights are when we get together at someone’s house to serve the kids and community in that neighborhood food.

Esther: The Woman I Most Admire from the Bible:
Ever since I was a young girl, my favorite woman and, therefore, character, from the Bible (minus Jesus) is Esther. I remember that I first started loving her story when I watched it in Veggie Tales.

My Role Models:
I was doing a Bible study recently, and I was learning about King David. The author of the Bible study guide mentioned that King David, while one with flaws, was his role model.

Be Humble enough to Apologize:
When I was a kid, I remember my pastor telling stories about times when he would lose his temper, and then he would have to apologize.
