During a marriage conference with my wife, Katie, I felt a strong prompting to share our story. I shared my rough notes and plans for the book with her, including the working title and chapter topics. Katie, however, expressed that she wasn't ready to share her own story, as it was still a very raw and real part of our lives following a mental health scare just six months prior.
Our lives had improved since that crisis, but we were still on the journey to regain stability. When I expressed my readiness to share, Katie was honest about her hesitation. Even back in 2018, during our initial mental health crisis, I had mentioned our intention to share our story one day, but her response had been a hesitant "maybe," indicating that our priority was on healing. Today, we are still healing, navigating life's challenges while raising our four children, and steadfastly committed to fulfilling the promises made in our marriage.
Our book is a testament to a marriage that faced severe trials, two individuals fighting for each other, their family, their faith, and their healing journey. It not only narrates our struggles and how we overcame them but also highlights the invaluable lessons we learned, the unwavering faith that anchored us, and the incredible people who stepped into our lives to offer support and guidance.
We aim to share our story to provide hope, inspiration, and encouragement to others navigating similar challenges. Life can be tough, but we firmly believe that no one has to face it alone. Our journey embodies the power of love, faith in Christ, and the strength derived from the support of friends and family. It's about finding light in the darkest moments and holding onto hope when all seems lost. how mental heath tore through our marriage
