Sharing the Savior’s Story

Standing Up for Jesus

On April 20, 1999, Cassie Bernall, a junior at Columbine High in Littleton, Colorado, was a typical teenager having a typical day. To look at her, you would have thought she had a great deal of time, an entire lifetime stretching out ahead of her. She should have had time to mature, fall in love, have a family, and grow old. That time was taken away from her when a classmate pointed a gun at her and asked if she believed in God. She said “yes” and a second later she was dead. Cassie had the right answer. She knew who Jesus was: Jesus was her Savior.
