Boyd: Ā "I think what God has done in Kingdom Home is really, really cool. Ashley, she's amazing in how hard she works and all the house parents that are pouring into the kids every single day, and the team of employees that are both in America and in Uganda. It's all Him. The doors that he opens; how he continues to bring the right people around these kids. We're just kind of answering the call and, and moving how he's calling us to. Children living as they should and they're not in situations that they're vulnerable anymore." Ā
Buehring: "What do you admire about those kid's courage in the face of some of that vulnerability that they have to confront?"
Boyd: "When you go there and you see the joy of the children. The situations that they were in and whatnot, like you don't, it doesn't even register because it's, they don't fit. And that's just the testament to the homes that Kingdom Home has created. The environments, the house parents have created. There's just so much joy and it's really special."
Buehring: "How do you carry the reflection of hope into this ever-changing, transforming world? Ā
Boyd: "It's just knowing that regardless of what our eyes see, there's something greater planned. This is all temporary. We're called to do what we're called to do and called to live with that joy and hope and not be limited by any of the darkness. Acknowledge it, it's there, but like, it's not changing the story of what Jesus has done. The redemption that's already been had. This life will end, but we get to live in eternity. That's what it's all about. So let's do what you're called to here. That's gonna look different for each one of us. But the hopes in that, right? The hope's in the cross."
Buehring: "Jesus the redeemer. Who has He become, Matt, for you?" Ā
Boyd: "Jesus, man. I mean, He's everything! He's teacher, comforter, and savior. Doesn't matter what's in front of you. Believe in what he said. Trust in that. Trust in His words. He knows our hearts in the clubhouse after a good game and a bad game. He knows what it's like to throw a three-two breaking ball after missing with it. He knows what it's like to try to go field a ground ball. He knows what it's like to try to be a dad. Don't limit him. You see Jesus more and more in everything that you do. I don't know what tomorrow holds. I'm glad I'm not writing it. 'Cause every time I try to, he always writes something better. We'll just see how that goes."
