For DaWan the euphoric feeling of acceptance she experienced at her grade school contest was like a shot of cocaine that she thought she had to keep going by continuing a big lie. The negative consequences of her actions impacted her family and the entire grade school.

Accepted and Loved

When DaWan preaches, she does not see herself as a woman preaching, a mother preaching, or a wife preaching. She feels that she is a person God has chosen to use to preach the Gospel. However, some pointed out that she was a woman, a Black woman, a mother, and a wife and said she should not be behind a pulpit.
