Hello and Welcome to my Website.
My name is William Torres, but my family and friends call me Willie. It is a pleasure to be here with you today, and I am excited to share my faith journey with you.
My journey has been amazing and fulfilling as a new Christian. I have seen God work in my life in ways I never could have imagined. I have grown closer to my faith and have seen Him work in my life and the lives of those around me. I am truly blessed to call myself a Christian, and I am excited to continue to grow in my faith.
I believe that I have come a long way in life. Over the years, I have worked hard to become a better man, husband to Frances Torres, and father to our children. I have strived to be a good friend and companion to those I have been fortunate to build relationships with. I have learned to appreciate the small moments of joy and fulfillment that come with every human connection.
I began writing stories that I believe were inspired by the Holy Spirit. These stories are my testimonies about the different trials I have gone through, and how the Lord has helped me to overcome them. Through this process, I’ve discovered that I can forgive those I once vowed to never forgive, and in turn, my relationships with them have been restored. They are now a huge blessing and a special part of my life.
I hope that through my writing I can be a source of encouragement to other people in their faith and relationship with the Lord. I pray that those who read my words will be blessed by the Lord and find strength and comfort in His Word.
To be honest, I have had to come to terms with the fact that I am not perfect, but it is in this place of acceptance that I am able to truly worship a God who is. His infinite love brings me joy, strength, and peace, and I am thankful for the privilege of being able to serve Him.
I have also started a Social Media Ministry on Facebook, which I invite you to visit here. Being Crazy For Christ is a platform where I share my journey of faith, and I am also on YouTube – Willie Torres Jr. and I am excited to see all that God will do through it.
This is my hope, and I’m so thankful for it. I’m thankful for the love of Jesus, and I’m thankful for the chance to grow in Him together with you.
You Are Loved
Willie Torres Jr.

I agree with the ridiculous part, who would want to say and shout Roll Tide 😂🤣 ? But overall, it’s fun to have family and friends like that. It makes it so much enjoyable to watch the game.
My wife and boys hate sports, so when I’m watching, I have no one to cheer with or high five. So, instead, I use my phone to trash talk who ever I’m against. Ooh, Trash- Talk. Hmm? I sense something here. 😂

Guys love to trash talk about sports. It’s guy and sports thing. I don’t watch the games with my husband either. Occasionally I catch a play of college or Pro football and I love a god play or upset but to set through the rest of the game is too much. I’m the same with all sports, the sportsmanship, the great plays, the upsets and victories are awesome but the in between can’t hold me. I love basketball and played myself in High School but unless I’m at the game, I can’t watch the entire game. Maybe that’s a lack of commitment. :)

I can totally relate to your fandom Willie! The Ducks have a great foundation set with Danny Lanning; high character guy who will get high character, competent players for the Ducks. It says alot about a man’s coaching ability when Nick Saban is looking to hire him.
I’m an Ohio State fan and the Buckeyes have been one of the few bright spots in my sports portfolio lol. It’s going to be a very good game in mid October when we meet at Eugene. Mike
LikeLiked by 1 person
I’m really looking forward to that game. I just hope Coach Lanning can get the team in better shape than they’ve been in the past couple of games. We often start the season a bit slow and shaky, which has been a pattern with the Ducks for years. After watching these first two games, it’s clear they need to build confidence and work better together, or they risk facing some tough losses.
