He grew up with a lisp, buck teeth, and a home filled with more dysfunction than affection. By age four, his father was gone. By ten, his family was split. Shame, insecurity, and survival shaped his childhood—but somewhere beneath it all was a longing for something better.
In this powerful testimony, one man shares how a quiet hunger for truth led him from beer-soaked barrooms and broken relationships to a Spirit-filled altar and a brand-new identity. Through military service, marriage struggles, fatherhood, and a terrifying health scare with his newborn granddaughter, we witness God’s hand at work—restoring what was lost and rewriting what was broken.
This is a story about finding your voice… finding your family… and finding freedom in Jesus. A story that reminds us: when God delivers, He doesn’t do it halfway. He makes all things new.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
