Key Quotes

  • 12:21 - "I just think of King Hezekiah.... give me some more time... and there were people interceding... we see when when people intercede, things change. God shows His mercy."

  • 14:47 - "We always tell people when it comes to their health and the way they eat, we're not trying to force them to eat perfectly. We're trying to educate them. We also we put them in an environment where they're going to win."

  • 31:52 - "If you do not keep your word to yourself, it creates a vicious cycle and it makes it easier and easier. And then you have self-loathing. You think you're a terrible person because you ate the wrong thing or you didn't do something. And that's just in my mind, that's the enemy whispering in people's ear."
