Hi everybody, welcome back to the channel. So if you're watching this in real time, today is June 2nd and it is my birthday.

I am 31 years old today and I'm just so tremendously grateful because there was a time when I was in my late 20s and I couldn't even imagine turning 30 because of how depressed and hopeless I had felt my entire life up until that point.

And then when I was 27 years old, I met the Lord Jesus Christ.

And ever since then, I've only looked forward to life and have enjoyed my birthdays.

So I'm just so grateful to the Lord Jesus Christ.

And the last couple years, I've done these Q&As.

I think I've done them since I was 29 for my birthdays. And I am

because there were so many and you guys asked so many good questions

gave me some new video ideas so thank you for that without further ado let's get started

this is from alice s 53 67 on youtube she says happy birthday angela i have a thank you i have a

bit deeper question kind of related to the topic of ideolatry,

which was an awesome video. Thank you again. How to find your worth fully in Christ and stop

looking for external validation. How to stop people pleasing and feeling worthless. Thank you for

what you're doing. God bless you. So I think that I just want to say first and foremost that

I acknowledge that this can be harder for us, especially as women in a culture and in a world
