This is the best. I've been praying that you would find a niche. You are a great dad partly because you found a way to be all that God wanted you to be. It takes time to find the way, so glad that you put God first so all the rest works out

A great read Matt. A father’s presence is the best present that you can give your children! Well done you!

Having known Christa since she was a little girl, your story was so inspiring. The beauty of hell. The beauty of how you each work together to provide each other needs and your children is inspiring.

Thanks, Matt. Appreciate reading about your journey here and I can't imagine what it's been like (Pr 14:10)! No doubt it's been a roller coaster going through all these changes. Our culture is simply not ready for you, my friend! May Christ continue to shine through. ONWARD!

Definitely a roller coaster, Paul! I think there are more stories like this than we often hear, but hopefully we find a new equilibrium as a culture. Onward, indeed!

What really struck me (and I should have mentioned this in my original comment) is the courage and transparency of your post. I'm grateful to God for these as they'll serve you (and your family) well into the future. God's continued grace to your and yours!
