On April 16, 1978, when Andy was just two years old, his father shot and killed his mother in cold blood. The rest of Andy's life he would struggle with this, but he would eventually come to a place of forgiveness. He now helps others learn to live that same journey. We hope this conversation will help you lay down your objections to forgiveness and find the courage to step forward into the life of freedom God has for you.

REV. ANDY STODDARD is the Lead Pastor at St. Matthew's United Methodist Church in Madison, MS.
