I am a man who is often at war with who I want to be and who I am. I have endured, as all of us have, many trials and afflictions throughout my life which have brought me to this very point in time. I have experienced the worst and best this life has to offer and I am still here. I have learned great truths along the way, some relative and some eternal, that I hope to share with you. I hope that my words can be an inspiration to you or just an affirmation of truths already learned. I am not a scholar but I am a believer. I was raised by a mother of great faith. My journey of faith didn't begin until I was thirty eight years old. I am the prodigal son who has return to my fathers house. I am experiencing the reality of redemption. The Atonement of Jesus Christ is the miracle of the eternities.
