For years, Rorie suffered without a phone, or at least she thought she did, until she realized her parents were keeping her away from real distractions. The listeners who don’t yet have a phone may relate with Rorie’s younger self, who felt like she was the only girl in the world without a fancy device. They will discover, however, that it's an opportunity to draw closer to the Lord. Without extra temptations, it’s easier to focus on our main fulfilling purpose: pursuing Jesus Christ.

When she turned 16, Rorie got a phone, and according to her parents, it was a tool, not a toy. She was ready to use it wisely, but over time she discovered her boundaries were breaking. Reaching the point of having to tell her mom to hide her phone, Rorie knew she had gone too far. She hopes to encourage those teen girls who have a phone to keep discipline and not allow those phones to hinder their relationship with the King of Kings.
