Q&A with Evan

 

What's the funniest story your mother tells about you?

When I was little, if I had something in my hand that I wasn't supposed to have, I would squeeze it really tight.  When my mom would ask for it, I would refuse to give it to her, and kiss her hand very sweetly.  She says this is when she knew I would be trouble.  She says I was a very "spicy" child.

 

If you won a million dollars, what would you buy? I would start a non-profit for children in the foster care system, pay for college, and buy everything on my Pinterest wish list.   Do you prefer eating the frosting off the cupcake or the cupcake first? FROSTING FIRST.  Or if the cupcakes aren't homemade, I just scrape it off.   What is your favorite book of the Bible?  Why? My favorite book is 1 Corinthians.  I've read it more than any other book, except Matthew.  I've read one summary that says it "teaches believers how to live to Christ in a Christ-less society."  That's a perfect description for it.  It's been a guide to me throughout high school.  My favorite verse in it is 1 Corinthians 7:23.
