Sometimes we have doubts about God and our relationship with Him. In Carla’s case, she wondered if the decision she made as a child to trust in Jesus was real. For a long time her life didn’t look like she knew Him and it caused her to wonder if she was really right with God.

Sometimes the most effective lessons in life are those learned through experience. The voices we listen to and follow have a bearing on our direction in life. Carla dismissed the concerns of her parents and it didn’t go well. But then, she heard a different voice, which caused her to consider her ways.

Carla was greatly impacted by her grandfather. He was a man who loved God and wanted his family to do the same. And although Carla’s early life was marked by pain and regret, her grandfather’s influence on her would bear fruit one day.

Dino moved to the reservation when he was 13. After living in a mixed community, he discovered that he didn’t fit in on the rez. He was rejected and abused by classmates. This left him wondering who he really was and where he really belonged. His quest led him to discover his true identity.

I’ve seen it, I’ve been there, I did it, I know because I know what I’m talking about, because if I wasn’t, I’d be in a bar telling you about the times I was drunk and stuff.
