What happens when two people who both lost their fathers at age five—and both spent years wrestling with anger toward God—find each other?
Matt and Jen Corbett’s testimony is a story of parallel pain, unexpected grace, and a loving heavenly Father who never stopped pursuing them.
Jenn grew up struggling to understand why God would allow her father to be taken from her. Matt experienced the same loss, carrying anger, loneliness, and the feeling that he did not belong. Both knew about God, but each had to reach a place of personally surrendering their hurt, bitterness, and control to Him.
Years later, one unexpected online conversation revealed something neither of them could have imagined: they had lived remarkably similar stories. Their fathers had both died when they were five years old. Their mothers had never remarried. Both had wrestled with the same questions—and both had discovered that God had never stopped pursuing them.
From bitterness to surrender, from unanswered questions to deeper trust, Matt and Jenn share how God used their pain, brought their lives together, and gave them the opportunity to serve Him side by side.
