Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

My faith is essential to who I am, and my faith will guide me as a Delegate as it has guided me in my time on City Council. One of my favorite verses is Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. In good times and in bad times, my relationship with my savior Jesus Christ has been the most uplifting presence anyone could want to have. Proverbs 22:6 says Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. Katy and I made a personal decision to make sure our three sons would be educated according to the teachings of our Church. In Richmond, I will fight for Unborn lives and fight for an end to ALL tax dollars that go to Planned Parenthood. I will work to reinstate all of the Pro Life measures that were repealed by the Pro Abortion Liberal Democrats in Richmond this past session.
