Mistakes are made every day. Some require a simple, "I’m sorry." Others may result in lengthy conversations and a restructuring of the issue. And then there are mistakes that change a person’s life forever. Robin’s brother, Buddy, made that kind of mistake.
Truth be told, we’ve all made mistakes. The hope with every error is that we learn from it and do not repeat it. It is not our job to judge, there are Courts and Commandments that render judgement. Maybe our role is to accept people for who they are, forgive them their trespasses, and support them as they re-engage in society.
It’s said there are things in life that either make us or break us. The question becomes, "How do we respond?" Our guest has responded with graciousness and tenacity. He refuses to allow his restrictions to overshadow his successes and welcomes discussions about his past. In his own words, he entered prison “spiritually sick and addicted to alcohol,” and returned to society 13 years later as a spirit-filled, recovering alcoholic who is the first to give all the glory to God. In fact, he is convinced he would not be here today without his time in prison, and his eventual spiritual renewal.
Now that’s a testimony!
