84. Forgiveness & Purpose in a Jail Cell with Curtis Fry

Ordinary People Extraordinary Things

What happens when a devout faith is tested by the appeal of nightlife and poor choices? Curtis, our guest on this episode of Ordinary People Extraordinary Things, knows the answer all too well. Growing up in a family deeply rooted in ministry, Curtis carried his strong faith through homeschooling to public high school, proudly wearing the label of "Jesus freak" despite the teasing. Through small decisions, the absence of his accountability partner, and a decision on his 21st birthday that spiraled into a night of chaos, he candidly recounts the hours lost in a haze, only to wake up to missing clothes and an unexpected confrontation with the law resulting in a 2nd degree murder charge.

But Curtis's story is one of redemption and spiritual awakening. Facing the darkness of a jail cell, he discovered forgiveness from God and a renewed purpose. Curtis shares how this pivotal moment transformed his understanding of grace, surrender, and the importance of sharing his journey to inspire others. Curtis's journey serves as a beacon of hope for those struggling with guilt and the fear of unforgiveness. Join us for a powerful testimony of hope, resilience, and the life-altering impact of true faith.
