Growing Up on the Farm, I Just Wanted My Dad to Say “I Love You”

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

I grew up on a dairy farm, and there were generations of hurt sitting under the surface. I was captain of the football team. Strong work ethic. Tough kid. But inside, I was broken and empty because I never heard the words I needed most. 'I love you.' 'I'm proud of you.' God started restoring my relationship with my father, and one of the most powerful moments was finally hearing him say he was proud of me. Only God can fill what man never gave you.
