“Having Christ in every aspect of my teenage years has greatly influenced who I am today. Most teens are out there getting drunk, using drugs and doing what they want. I have no desire to do any of those things. Thanks to Western, I have a firm foundation in which I can stand on and stay righteous through college and the rest of my life.”
