Hi, My Name is Danny and I'm an Addict

I just finished listening to my youth pastor's first sermon on iTunes. (I had missed the actual sermon because I had to work. I am so so sorry Zach. I'm coming to Go Project on Sunday. <3)

I am in shock....

Just.... shock.....

The way he spoke, although maybe worded differently than his normal dialog, sprang from his heart and leaped straight into mine.

I encourage every single person out there, whether you're a Christian or an atheist, a Jew or a Muslim, a man or a woman, straight or gay, young or old, to listen to this. It made me feel LOVED. That I belong, that I can be free, that there is hope. That everyone struggles like I do.

I choose to do what Zach said he almost did in his sermon. I believe I am ready.

Hi, my name is Danny and I'm addicted to:

-Sorrow
-Sexuality
-Tears
-Attention
-Drama
-Romance
-Hate
-Pain
-Self-Image
-Self-Loathing
-Pride From Others (Specifically my parents)
-Music
-Success
-Belonging

What Zach says is right. We need fellowship. We need each other. We need light. <3

Here's the link to download his sermon. It's absolutely free and doesn't cost you anything. I put it on my iPod. The title is "Hi, my Name is Zach and I'm an Addict."

As Zach would say, "So glad it's all about grace."
