best block blocks seen toss year
Khoury's block on that toss play - wow. That was one of the best blocks I've seen all year - on film or in person.
eternal found hope joy
I found out there is a lot more joy and hope and eternal things in the world than snowboarding.
smart
What we got was a very smart jacket.
field great sees sound
He's a great quarterback. He's fundamentally sound and sees the field well.
best final people throwing
That was the best women's final there's ever been. People were throwing down their best runs.
hurt motivation
That was awful. It hurt me. After that I really got back and did a lot of training. I look at that as motivation for this season.
reality anchors choices
I don't look to my situation to determine what choices I make. I've developed a good sense of values and beliefs. That's my reality. No matter where I am, God is still good. No matter where I am, nothing is impossible. It's those sort of principles that really anchor me.
jobs home thinking
I think I've done a pretty good job of not compartmentalizing my life. I take my core values and I live them out at home like I would in my snowboarding like I would at church with my friends.
years two interesting
I've always lived a life where what you see if what you get. I've never wanted to live two different lifestyles. The initial transition for me was perhaps the most difficult. It wasn't easy communicating what I believed and what my values were. Establishing that as a young adult was interesting. I was 20 years old when I got saved.
thinking who-i-am people
I'm more comfortable with my beliefs and with who I am. I honestly don't think about it that much. I just try to live my life and I try to love people. I try to love God well and I try to love people well. Those are my main objectives.
attitude giving community
Yeah, one of my approaches with my community, my friends, the companies I represent, has been to take the attitude of what I bring instead of what I can get. What can I give?
successful thinking years
These have been the most successful years I've ever had. I've been placing well in the contests but more importantly I've been enjoying them. I think those two things go hand-in-hand.
thinking self-worth snowboarding
2006 Games -by then, my identity had started to shift. Before that, my identity was in snowboarding. That's how people knew me and that's how I knew myself. That's where I got a lot of my self worth. That began to shift and I started to understand that I didn't get my worth from people or from the things that I did. It was from Christ. If I hadn't had that shift in my life, I think my world would have come crumbling down.
girl christian church
I thought being a Christian was about following rules and going to church and being good all the time, but this girl helped me understand that it's about having a relationship with God. That was where things shifted for me.
