movies are graphically violent
and immoral, pornography is
rampant, sex outside of marriage
is the norm, and abortions are
common.

Spirit was asking me to
do something I had never
heard of before. I felt like
He was asking me to write
the book He had put in my
heart and write every day
for those 21 days. And I
did. Because of that, this
book was born.
