This week we had such a fun conversation with Matt Jacobi - Caprio. Matt has been a voice of truth on various world topics such as women's rights, religion, mental health, bullying and equality.
In December, Matt and his fiancé, Nick, created a Barbie "Same Sex Wedding Set" for his niece's 8th birthday, with the hopes to inspire toy giant, Mattel. After posting a message and picture on his social media platforms, the set went viral and became international news around the world.
In this conversation Matt vulnerably shares about his experience growing up as a gay Christian and the ways he had to wrestle with God accepting him just as he is. Over time Matt is convinced that God does in fact love him because God made him.
It is clear from this conversation that love is at the core of who Matt is. It radiates from him as he talks about his family, his husband, his faith, and his life. His open heart can inspire us all to expand our circles a little bit wider.
It was such an honor to hear Matt’s story. We hope you enjoy it!
