“This is a song I wrote around the time I had prostate surgery. God gave me hope that I would get through it. Three days later, I was playing basketball. God showed me how much He was there.” – David Bratton

One quote that really hit home for me was:
“We waste so much time trying to be someone else, or doing what we think we’re supposed to do, that we miss the opportunity to be ourselves.”
