James McAdoo uses faith to make big decision

Posted Jun 24, 2010
James McAdoo, after much soul searching and prayer, decided it was best to return to Norfolk Christian [rather than attend UNC a year early]. His parents think he changed his mind after visiting the poor country of Nicaragua earlier this month. He was there with his mom as part of a 12-day mission trip. “When you see conditions like that,” said his mother, “it’s not hard to see how blessed you are. But it also gives you a chance to reflect on your purpose in life.” (Virginian-Pilot)
