The Good, The Bad, And The Grace of God What Honesty and Pain Taught Us About Faith, Family, and Forgiveness

Description

Love letters have always been a big part of our lives.

We’ve written love letters to each other.

Miss Kay wrote some very special letters to Jep (her favorite) at a crucial time in his life.

Jessica has been writing letters-some long, some short-to our kids, Lily, Merrit, Priscillia, and River. She pours out whatever is on her mind or in her heart at that moment for them to read when they grow up.

Now our girls have taken up writing love letters, mostly to us and their mamaws. Perhaps someday they’ll be writing to their husbands too.

But the most precious letter of all is one that we treasure most–God’s love letter to us. Without it, we’d still be lost. Studying God’s words together was part of what kept us together when everything else was tearing us apart. God is the glue that holds our marriage together.

We care much more about love than money or fame or expensive toys. We care about our children and family and friends and being together. We want more than anything else to be rich in love.

This is the story of how we met and how our love started when we had both stumbled and struggled to find our way in life and were losing hope. It’s also the story of how forgiveness can break down the barriers that stand in your way, put you on the path of grace, and give you a fresh new start.

this is our story, both the good and the bad.

This is our love letter to you.
