30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 9

List  3 people who have influenced you and describe how. Pastor Don Sharp- He taught me so much and helped me to open up spiritually. Before I met him I would just listen and take in what a pastor said. P. Don, as I call him, taught me how to respectfully discuss, disagree, and challenge spiritual leaders. We would spend hours discussing and giving our different interpretations of scripture. I have learned how to get the real meat of the scripture. How to look at scriptures from all different angels. When I began doing this I began growing spiritually. I still love to sit in a room of leaders and pastors and discuss things. I love to give my insight and I absorb so much of what they say. By questioning and debating them in a respectful way, I am still able to submit and honor them. P. Don also had this amazing gift of loving people right where they are and still pushing them to grow. He would often put me outside of my comfort zone and would see how I would respond.  SeƱora Boulang
