Summary

SummaryI’m Shaun, and just a year ago, my wife and I handed each other divorce papers 😔. After 18½ years as a gunner in the Army National Guard—serving in Bosnia where I faced minefields and constant danger—I returned home exhausted, taking a demanding job that stole my time and sanity. I became entitled and angry, lashing out at my wife until our relationship nearly shattered. One day, I walked around Holes Lake, my heart pounding with failure and regret. In a single moment, God spoke through that pain and lifted the weight off my chest. I ran home, typed out years of apologies, and realized I needed a power higher than myself. At that instant, I surrendered to His grace and committed my life to Jesus Christ. Standing in the water as I was baptized, I felt peace flood my soul—no more anger, no more pain. The hardest thing I’ve ever done was give up control, but in doing so, I found freedom, healing, and new hope through faith 🙏✨.

We work so hard sometimes… and the payment for all of our labors is often anger and hurt and entitlement. After years of making bad choices and hurting the ones closest to him, Shaun discovered the secret of surrender and the dramatic change it brings.
