18. Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian. I believe in God, the Father, and in Jesus Christ, His only son. I believe that Jesus lived among us on earth, that He was crucified and died for our sins, and that He arose from the dead on the third day and ascended to Heaven. I believe that Jesus, and His teachings, are the road to salvation. I attend the First United Methodist Church in Waxahachie.
