Quote by Julie Anne Peters

“The best thing about coming out is, it's totally liberating. You feel like you've made this incredible discovery about yourself and you want to share it and be open and honest and not spend all your time wondering how is this person going to react, or should I be careful around this person, or what will the neighbors say? And it's more. It's about getting past the question of what's wrong with me, to knowing there's nothing wrong, that you were born this way. You're a normal person and a beautiful person and you should be proud of who you are. You deserve to live with dignity and show people your pride.”

“There are certain people who will always seek to criticize. This has nothing to do with you. It must be hard to be inside their head, you know? I mean if they find so much fault in everyone around them... then one can only imagine the faults they must see in themselves.”

“True evangelism is about sharing the love of Christ and transforming lives through the power of the Gospel. Worldly evangelism, on the other hand, often prioritizes numbers, fame, and personal gain. Biblical evangelism is rooted in humility, compassion, and a genuine desire to serve others. In contrast, worldly evangelism can be driven by self-promotion and a desire for recognition. Effective evangelism comes from a heart of love and service, not from a desire for personal gain. When we focus on sharing the message of Jesus with sincerity and humility, lives are transformed.”
