Pastor Emmanuel Ziga

From the first day I met him, he's been very straight, disciplined, principled, and he never pampered me.

God never pampers me.

I mean, if I do anything wrong, he was right there to tell me it's right or wrong.

That's how I grew up.

So when I come to America and people take God so much for granted, it really scares me.

You know, one day I said, God, you're not an American, are you?

He didn't respond because he knew I knew the easy answer.

Because he's all things.

He's all things.

So I asked my friends what was the most affordable way to go to Washington State.

They said buy the Greyhound bus because I needed to borrow the money.

You know, I had to be very frugal with whatever I had.

So instead of flying or going by train, I decided to go with a Greyhound.

Well, three days, three nights, you know, I was on that trip.

I didn't have any extra cash, so I didn't eat at all for three days, three nights.

We go to Billings, Fargo.

And at the bus stop, sometimes the grand bus, they'll change drivers.

So a guy who sat next to me found out that I wasn't eating at all on the drive, on the journey.

And so he got pizza, gave me a little piece.

That was my first time I ever ate pizza.
