One moment we are in a Roman prison, then we are in the temple in Jerusalem, watching Yeshua argue with the merchants. Why?First, Nina constantly uses her own experience as a sexual person with both men and women, she is bi,to describe what feels good and what may not feel so good.A native of Massachusetts, she currently lives with her husband in Nashville, Tennessee.
