Do not wait until you're directly impacted or someone you love is directly impacted before finding it worthwhile to take a firm sand in the truth both biblically and again objectively.

12-time all-American swimmer Riley Gaines speaking at the

2024 issues etc. making the case conference.

Which is exactly what I did. I'm ashamed to say it. That's exactly what I did. I'm ashamed to say it.

That's exactly what I did.

I waited until I was negatively and personally impacted before I deemed it a worthy cause.

I saw the harm, the severity, the trajectory of where we were going

if we didn't have people who take a stand. So don't do what I did. If we do it'll be far too late.
