THE JOURNEY ON THE ROAD TO FORGIVENESS IS NOT ALWAYS EASY, BUT THE POWER OF FREEDOM ATTAINED FROM THE CAPTIVITY OF YOUR PAST MAKES THE TRAVELING PRICELESS.

The meaning of family can vary in many ways, but for young John it was comforting to know that he belonged to a group that provided him trust, comfort, love care, and happiness. Early on, he thought the life he lived would be forever. Little did he know his perfect world would soon crumble, as his mother would leave due to domestic violence, and his father would leave six months later. While faced with challenges, disappointments, disaster, and despair, children learn to lean on the love they develop for one another. The pain of unforgiveness was the one barrier that kept young John from moving forward -- then he learned of the love God demonstrated through His Son, which allowed him to have a life of fulfillment and meaning.
