Without a doubt, it would have to be Nelson Mandela. I would love to talk with him, hearing all his stories. Also I would have loved to talk with Mother Theresa, and see her heart in action for the Lord. Aside from that, dunno?

Which DISNEY character are you most like?
brought to you by
You are Living on the Edge by Aerosmith. You are
very concerned about the world. You have
compassion and a deep want to change how the
world works. You are easily moved, and even
though you sometimes forget to look for the
good in the world, when you do it really
touches you."There's somethin' wrong with the world today
I don't know what it is
Something's wrong with our eyesWe're seeing things in a different way
And God knows it ain't His
It sure ain't no surpriseIf you can judge a wise man
By the color of his skin
Then mister you're a better man than I"

heroes....well, I could list people who have greatly impacted my life. Christ is definitely the most obvious to my mind. Then the other top people would be my Jen, who shared Christ with me long ago. She is one special woman of God whom I continue to learn from. She is a constant voice of Christ for me. Truly greatfull that she shared her love for the Lord with me. She has truly a special, tender heart for the Lord. Then Penelope, who is the mother of Nichole Nordeman. She has also been SUCH a special friend. She is a beacon of God's wisdom & truth and is soooo passionate for the Lord. I've learned and grown so much in seeing her heart for the Lord lived out. Another is Mike Mills, who continues to sharpen my sword with his faith and his knowledge of the word. He has always pushed me in my own faith to give it all, or not at all. Truly a man of faith!! And last but certainly NOT least, is my MoMo. Now this woman may seem to live a quiet life, not always in the lime light, or on stage for all to see, but she is certainly a SPECIAL woman of GOD. She has soooo much wisdom and WHAT A HEART for Jesus! What a servant of servants, she is! These people are all warriors for Christ, who are definitely bringing about kingdom change here on Earth. Blessed to be friends with them, and learn from them. I've also been challenged by the lives of Nelson Mandella, Gandhi, and Mother Theresa....pretty amazing people, who wanted to impact the world. I could keep listing them, really, but I'll leave it at these ones.
