Is. Reasons because Idaho is a quite, clean, and nice place to live in, we get sorts of great

Weather snow, fall, and summer. Living here has brought me great joy with all my friends and family here.

Living my life here in Idaho for these past eleven years has been a roller coaster. Growing up as

    I moved to Alabama from Texas at the beginning of my 6th grade year. The day before leaving, my best friend since kindergarten came over and stayed the night with me, dreading falling asleep and waking up to a nightmare of having to say goodbye. The morning came and so did the tears, I had packed up my entire life, said goodbye to all my family, friends, my house, and even my dad. How was I, an insecure, and VERY shy little girl supposed to just leave everything I knew and loved and start all the way over when my life was just getting started? It was a long 12 hour drive from Dallas, Texas, to little town Guntersville, Alabama and it gave me a long time to pity myself, hate my mom for moving me, get over the hate and be excited, and then be upset all over again. Alabama. Why Alabama? We had a choice, Alabama or Florida, and we chose here??? Me being a stubborn, bratty, over dramatic pre-teen, I just couldn’t wrap my head around it. I thought the world was ending.…

    Being baptized as a Christian shows commitment in ones faith. When one becomes baptized, that means that they have accepted the Lord as the savior of their sins. Sarah, a young girl who doesn’t understand her religion, does not know when she will choose to be baptized and whether or not she even believes in it. Being a preacher’s daughter, you would expect “being saved” to be the main objective. However, Sarah’s family never pushed her to be baptized. At a point in her life, Sarah finally realizes that being baptized requires no specific time, but when you know the moment is right. After her father’s passing, Sarah’s whole aspect on the thought of baptism transforms. Sarah’s initial belief about baptism changes over time when…

    I have learnt what resilience really means. Resilience means to bounce back up and not to give up too easily. Resilience relates to Christian life in general because if you are Christian and sometimes you don't understand things relating to being a Christian, you need faith to believe that God is real and he will help you with anything. God has a plan for everyone and everyone has a different plan. You can be anything when you grow up, God always has a future for somebody. When you are doing something like climbing a mountain or building a house, you need resilience so that you can do it and have faith in…

    I was raised a Christian, my father’s side more devout in their faith then my mothers. I was baptized in the Presbyterian Church in Laramie, Wyoming. I was around six months old. As a child I went to Sunday school, sometimes because I had to, sometimes because I wanted to. This continued until I was old enough to have other activities that conflicted. Because I had first hand experience within the Latter Day Saint culture while briefly living in Utah, religion always had a certain allure to it. While in Utah my sense of wonderment towards Christianity seemed to diminish while my skepticism of all religion increased. In my jaded beliefs it is no longer fair to call myself…

    Towards the middle of summer 2014, my family and I took our first “faith-cation” to Fort Worth, Texas, so that all of us could attend the Southwest Believer’s Convention. The Southwest Believer’s Convention is a special convention and opportunity for people of all ages to strengthen their faith and relationship with God. For a total of six days, three church services were held daily. Me being 14 years old at the time, I had no idea what the convention would be like. During my stay, the convention provided me with the blessing of making new friends with four people named Abe, Ana, Daphne, and Elizabeth.…
