Vannetta’s Favorites
- Character in Joshua’s Mission: My heart is with Charlie. I love all the characters in the book, but Charlie is the one who THINKS his life is over, only to find that God isn’t finished with him yet.
- Line in the story: “The world doesn’t stand still, Charlie. And you wouldn’t want it to.”
- Experience serving on an emergency response team: We were working on a house that had been flooded in Wimberley, Texas. The water had reached the roofline. Minutes after we showed up to work, the family that owned the house arrived, along with six children. Oh my. My first reaction was that they were going to be in the way! But those children worked so hard, and they were so respectful, that it ended up being a wonderful experience.
- Part about living in Texas: The people. Texans are such down-to-earth, God-fearing, hard-working, good people, and I adore them.
- Bible verse on serving others: “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” (Matthew 25:40).

Matthew 25:40 can be applied to so many situations. Even the smallest kindness is noticed by Jesus Christ-our Lord and Savior.
