Ep.37 Not Your Typical Love Story - How I met my Knight and Shining Armor

In honor of February — the love month — I’m sharing the full story of how I became Shabana Knight… but first, we rewind 19 years.

In this episode, I share:

• Growing up adopted from India and raised on the East Coast
• My early dream of becoming a kindergarten teacher
• College, heartbreak, and realizing there had to be more to life
• The spontaneous decision to move to Texas for ministry school
• The prayer I prayed about meeting my future husband
• The day I met David (and the unexpected “download” moment)
• Long-distance love, handwritten letters, and 9PM phone calls
• Our commitment to no physical touch before marriage
• Opposites attracting and trusting God’s timing
• The I love you instead of the engagement ring
• No physical touch before the altar (not recommended but can be done) - first time holding hands and everything else - best day ever! 12/01/07

This is a story about faith, growth, patience, and how sometimes love begins as a quiet friendship.

If you’ve ever wondered how to trust the process, follow the nudge, or believe that what’s meant for you will find you — this one’s for you.

Happy Love Month 💛
