Summary
Dan Carlson is age 62, married with 4 children. One son, 30, and three daughters 28-21, a two year old grandson and a fifteen month old granddaughter. Dan is an HVACR technician in Tucson Arizona, and gave his life to Jesus at age six. Dan's childhood, although very normal appearing, was full of trauma and there was also sexual abuse, wounds that he carried most of his life before Jesus set him on a path of healing. This is among the very first times that he's spoken about his life publicly in this way, but in the last two years, he's come to a place where he feels transparency and sharing is a way for him and others to heal, so he's not hiding anymore.
