I love this phrase that Matt uses as he talks about when things turned around for his own life, and the only way things till turn around for the better for any of us. Better choices means a better life, and there are no better choices any of us could ever make than the choices that align with God's truth. This is what led Matt and Toni both out of the darkness, and what has given them a wonderful marriage and blessed life today.
