2+2 Is Chicken

"Charlie Sasser”

  Have you somehow allowed your past mistakes to define you?
 If you have NEVER, EVER, EVER done that, we salute you. But just in case you’ve ever let words such as "failure," "worthless," "stupid," etc., speak louder than the truth, this episode just might resonate with you. So, we were really glad that our courageous, humble, and inspirational friend Charlie Sasser chose to be vulnerable with us. 
In this episode, Charlie shares with us about a time in which his addiction to alcohol led him to believe that his life wasn’t worth living. Fast forward to the present, in which he is now sober and full of hope.

 
Spoiler Alert: Sometimes, the very things you are currently struggling with can be used to help someone in the future.

Some may call it nepotism, but we’re calling it awesome.
 In today’s episode, pastor, husband, father of twins, author, and, MOST  importantly,  Sarah’s younger brother, Rob Shepherd, shares, from a husband’s point of view, what it was like for him and his wife to struggle with infertility. It’s a candid and insightful retelling from a man’s perspective, and we’re so grateful that he chose to open up with us.

We give this interview an enthusiastic 'four thumbs up!'"
