    no but really.

    ...because roughly 90% of the 600 students that came to the youth ministry I last volunteered for thought I was by far the coolest and most trust worthy leader on staff. (makes ya feel good knowing you're doing something right)

    I am mother to six happy kids, wife to a wonderful husband, homeschooling mom, adult worship leader, youth worship leader, creative arts minister & an all-around great gal!

    And just so you know, the only way this is possible is to live on less than 4 hours of sleep a day.

    i'm a big deal because i'm a nobody.
  • Marla Saunders · 1 year ago
    I love Tyler's comment above! Way to go, Tyler.

    I'm a big deal because I watched my daughter leave for Prom tonight, and even though I had to terrorize her date just a little, I knew that I could trust her completely. That makes me a big deal!

    Other than that...I'm kind of no deal at all except that I am a real deal.

    I'm a big deal because I won the Military Motherhood Award. Will it matter in a month? Nope. But for today, it's AWESOME to be the Military Mom of the Year! :)

  • Tina · 1 year ago
    I try.
  • johnincolorado · 1 year ago
    but, you see, I am not a big deal. I am just a big man. I am not a big deal because i stopped trying to be a big deal. I am a big deal because of the price that was paid for my freedom?
    I don't want to be a big deal.
  • GregQualls · 1 year ago
    because I don't brag about myself.

    @Tim People know me. I'm kind of a big deal. :)

    I'm a big deal because...well...you know all my answers sound kind of pompous so I'll just shut up. Because I'm humble. That's why I'm a bid deal. I"m super humble.

  • ChurchyDave · 1 year ago

  • amy · 1 year ago
    A little over 3 yrs ago I gave birth to a 1lb.4oz. baby girl and she's still here to give me big hugs and flowers on Mother's Day. Really that makes her the big deal... and since God carried her and gave her the will to live, I guess that actually makes Him the big deal. So really, it's not about me today. It's about Him.
  • Karen · 1 year ago
    I've given birth to 5 children with no medication. One in the hospital, two in a birth center, two at home. And yes, it hurt.

    No one is a big deal. Lose your life to gain it, become the least to be the greatest, bragging about being a big deal is just not the way to go in my opinion.
  • Josh · 1 year ago
    ...because I have climbed Mt. Everest AND directed a feature film. Just kidding about Everest, but I did direct a feature film. At times that felt like climbing Everest.

    Check it out: www.dangerouscalling.com - a suspense thriller set in the world of small town church politics.

    My mom would be so upset at me for bragging... but Carlos told me too!
  • Shanda · 1 year ago

  • KAT · 1 year ago
    ...Because I was clogger of the month 3 months in a row in fourth grade. Oh ywah.
  • Tymm · 1 year ago
    I am a big deal because despite all of the wack things about me and my past - Jesus somehow, some way - still finds a way to love this messed up dude...

    AND - He has trusted me with our little girl in Ethiopia that we leave to get in LESS THAN A MONTH!!!!

    Actually - none of that makes me a big deal - that all makes Jesus a pretty big deal.

    Rock on Jesus.

    Ok for the spiritual answer: Because of my Saviour's love.

    Not so spiritual answer: Despite being severely dsygraphic and moderately dyslexia I have 2 college degrees. I wasn't supposed to be able to learn to read. Oh, yeah I have a blog. Despite my high school teacher not letting me in the computer class I wasn't smart enough I developed computer curriculum for K-6th grade.
  • Scott Magdalein · 1 year ago

  • Emily · 1 year ago
    ...because 4 years ago I knew about 15 words in Spanish and now I'm nearly fluent and about to get my Spanish degree with a 4.0 GPA.

    But mostly just because God pours out love on me every day.
