18. Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

My beliefs are based the scripture found in the Bible, that man is sinful and in need of a Savior. To describe the spiritual beliefs established in scripture is not something to be done "briefly". I believe we are to dedicate our lives to the worship and advancement of the gospel as it was written 2,000 years ago and passed down until today.
