Program 3656 Patrick Brighton (PG)
3656 Patrick Brighton (PG) (Adultery, Lust, Pride) As a kid, Patrick was afraid of his dad. His father was prone to fits of anger, a habit Patrick would inherit. Patrick struck out on his own as a teenager and, though he was confirmed in the church, he wasn’t driven by any moral compass. He wouldn’t hesitate to steal candy, make fun of people, get in fights, and by the time he was 14, he was sleeping around with girls. When his girlfriend got pregnant, Patrick was terrified to tell his parents. They decided to give the baby up for adoption and Patrick moved on to different women in college. When he married Cindy and started a family, he still felt dissatisfied. His first affair was short: with a new teacher at school. But eventually he began an adulterous relationship that led him to move out of his house and consider following this woman out of the state. Patrick stayed with his family, begrudgingly at first, and then, upon discovering God’s redeeming love, he began to transform. Now, he’s still married to Cindy and the happiest he’s ever been.
