A Sweet Tooth Leads Matt to a Savory Truth
[link removed]
“[Some men were] locked up longer than me and getting out after me. They were happy, joyful people, and I was not. … I started to learn from them and just realized that it was a relationship with Christ in their life that was different for them.”
—Matt
Matt thought his life was over. He had never had a run-in with the law before, and dealing with this new experience behind bars was hard—especially without any kind of faith.
On his first night in jail, Matt rejected an offer to attend church. But when he found out volunteers would be serving free doughnuts, he quickly changed his mind.
Doughnuts may have lured Matt to church, but a volunteer’s relatable message of love and forgiveness is what grabbed his attention and kept him there. When they asked, “Who wants to give their heart to the Lord?” Matt raised his hand and prayed.
“I didn't know what that really meant,” Matt says, but looking back, he recognizes that’s where the Holy Spirit started stirring in him.
