	Winsome Earle-Sears on Principles & Values

Christians are tenants and God is the landlord

[At Liberty U., a faith-based college]: "Without a good education you will get nowhere and you will get there very fast," she said. "So thank God that you are (at Liberty), getting the education that you need so that you can launch into this world that the Lord has given to us." Then she reminded students that Christians are tenants, and that God is the landlord. "These bodies of ours, they don't even belong to us," she said. "We are living in a rental acting like we own it." Source: Liberty U. News on 2025 Virginia Gubernatorial race , Oct 5, 2022
