- Great place I visited ... I've been to the UK, specifically London, several times for missions trips and I LOVE it. This history is fascinating the people are hilarious and talk really funny. It's hard to take a hardcore gangster inner city London kid seriously when he sounds like Oliver Twist. That's definitely my favorite place that I've visited and I'd love to go back!
- Book I really enjoyed ... It's hard to pick one book but I'd say "Everything Must Change" by Brian McClaren. It's a great book about how far gone astray this world has gone and the how the Church has done very little to help restore it. It's a book about change and gives great insight on what we need to do and should be doing as Jesus followers to bring heaven into this world we live in.
- When it's time to relax I generally want to eat like two Burritos from Qdoba, take a good 2 hour nap, wake up and play some board games with my friends, go to qdoba for a third burrito, go home and read a good book and fall asleep for a good 10 hours. That sound really really relaxing to me!
- I invest in YFC because I want to help them realize that they can be a part of the redemption of all things and that they have a purpose to serve on this earth and it's a good, exciting one not a mundane pathetic one. I want to help them see that God loves them and wants to partner with them to bring heaven to earth! The sooner people understand this the better which is why YFC is great!

- Book I really enjoyed ... Advent Conspiracy
- When it's time to relax, I ... love to hang out with my hubby & daughter
- I invest in teens through Youth for Christ because ... teens are very impressionable at this age, and it's an honor to be a small part of their journey

- Great place I visited ... Kamp Kanakuk (in Branson, MO)
- Book I really enjoyed ... Other than the Bible, the "My Life as..." book series I read when I was in 5th grade. ha.
- When it's time to relax ... play golf, watch TV, or listen to music
- I want to be a part of helping teens live for Christ, because I know the importance of needing to have a strong relationship with the Lord during such in impressionable time in a person's life.

Kami Sharp
- Great place I visited...was LA and surrounding cities in California
- Book I really enjoyed... Redeeming love
- When it’s time to relax I…Listen to music like Frank Sinatra or read a good book.
- I invest in teens through Youth for Christ because…I feel like I can help guide them through some tough decisions that they have to make as a teen. I have gone quite a bit and feel like I can really relate to a lot of teen girls trying to live their life forChrist in highschool. Youth for Christ has been a place where kids can be real with what's going on in their life, and I love that. It's not about being perfect, it's about real life and the struggles that come along with trying to be a teen Jesus follower. It's not easy, at least it wasn't for me...and most days it's still not easy. So it's a beautiful thing seeing teens relate to teens but also adults relating to teens. There is never a night at YFC that I haven't left learning something from not only Eric but the kids as well. I love it!
