"Sophie Bach from The Maker:

"Adrien Bach, main character from The Maker:
You know, when you’re a kid, you think you’re going to grow up to be something special, do something important. You’re not going to be a regular Joe like everybody else. But then you get out there and life starts to hit you. It hits you so many times, eventually you just can’t get up anymore. Or won’t. And then you just don’t know. Those dreams seem to fade away, and suddenly you’re not sure who you are anymore." — Wes Moore |

“When our passion for the Great Commission, becomes our search for the Great Politician, we know we're lost.”
