Our guests today are chaplains with their local county fire department. They have had that role for roughly 17 years now. Prior to that they were in leadership and ministry of their church for over 20 years.

One might think they have always had this great foundation of faith and theology which led them down this path but you’ll soon learn their experience was quite the opposite.

In case you were under the impression that we can script out our lives and plan all the plot twists ourselves, you might wanna stay tuned in!

Both Larry and Dianne’s lives are a triumphant example of how wonderful and powerful God’s love for each of us is. Both experienced significant trauma as children, both had exposure to quote unquote CHURCH as children, but the messages never connected. Both of them were about to switch cities with each other on the exact same day as one joined the Navy and the other was headed to University - but as God’s sovereignty would have it, the University plans changed, allowing the two of them to meet shortly after.

And while we’d love to say the rest is history after they met, their relationship was anything but smooth in the early years.

This story has so many lessons of value, I have a feeling almost anyone who will ever hear this episode will learn from and relate to some aspect of their stories.

This show is special, not only in the ways it show’s God’s presence in our lives and how he cares for us, but also because Larry and Dianne are good friends of mine...in fact they are my uncle and aunt respectively and both have had a personal impact in my faith development as well as I enjoyed a few years in their youth ministry when I was a young lad.
