Wedding Rings
A few years ago I led a Bible study on the topic of temptation with a group of high schoolers who didn't know much about the Bible. To bring the lesson to life I asked them to think about a time when they had been tempted sexually. Then I told them that God's Word had something to say about sexual temptation.

Jessie J
 
"I had really big teeth, a big fringe. I was just uncomfortable in my skin. I wasn't the pretty kid, I was the awkward one that didn't know who I fitted in with.

- 26-year-old singer Jessie J talking about overcoming bullies during her teenage years, BBC Radio 1 interview, aired January 20, 2015.
