COT: I’ve been a KISS fan my whole life. I can remember pretending to be KISS in my basement when I was 6 or 8 years old. My brother Bill, our best friend Johnny and I.

I’ve been reading a book with F3 guys and I’ve been trying to examine my faith. Accelerate spiritually if you will. It has really opened my eyes to the amazing trajectory of the path God has me on. I can see it clearly, like a chart or graph.

10 years ago I spent Christmas alone in Lincoln, no family or friends. 7 years ago I met my wife, 6 years ago I got sober, 3 years ago I came to F3 and on and on until last year I had a birthday party and we fed over 100 people. That friend Johnny who I used to air guitar KISS with played a few songs with me, my wife and our other friend Damien at that party. I was surrounded by so much love that day and I feel it every day. I never take it for granted. Amazing trajectory over a decade!

  It comforts me so much to know this is God’s plan for me.  This is what he wants.  All I have to do is put one foot in front of the other, try to do the next right thing and TRY to live third.  Everything else is going to be ok – the graph says so.  

Aye- Frosty
