NTER By Kelinda Crawford 58 Solutions Kelinda: “Know Who You Are, Live Like It Matters” sounds like an easy formula, but we know that life is rarely that simple. Tim, can you share with us an example of how profound this statement truly is when viewed from a Christian perspective? Tim: Most of us know that life isn’t easy. A lot of times life is really hard! We can either live by our emotions in the highs and lows of life, or live by our convictions. If we hold on to how much God loves us, we don’t have to ride the rollercoaster of life or be led by what others say about us (good or bad). When we live by our convictions, we can live for a greater purpose. Kelinda: This book is described as one that will help a homeschooling student “discover who you are by discovering whose you are.” Can you give us an example of how this has gotten you over the hump when faced with difficulties? Tim: During my trials, I had to always remember that God’s got a plan for me.
