David

   "My name is David. I am currently a student here at Teen Challenge. When I first got here I was rebellious towards all authority and I didn't respect anyone. Now that I've become a Christian I've realized with God's help that I need to submit to my leaders to obey his command. A verse that has helped me with that is Romans 13:1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. This helps me to know that when I obey the people in authority over me I'm obeying God."
