Popular Dialogues

"Shanna Harper: Momma, isn't it true that only a certain amount of people are allowed in heaven, and we're saved, right? Wanda Holloway: Uh huh. That's 'cause we're Missionary Baptists as opposed to the other kind of Baptists who if they make a mistake, they have to start all over again. But Missionary Baptists - once saved, always saved. Your grandma and grandpa were real smart. They chose a sect that has guarantees."

"Wanda Holloway: They even had me in "Sports Illustrated", in the Swimsuit Edition, but not in a swimsuit."
