There is nothing ordinary about mental illness. But there is something extraordinary about how Matthew Butler lived with it. Like all of us, Matthew was a sinner. But unlike most of us, Matthew had bipolar. In this posthumous memoir, written from the perspective of his mother and inspired by his life and writings, we learn an important truth. No matter your circumstances, even if you lose your mind, you always have hope for healing. This hope in Matthew was cultivated by his unswerving faith in Jesus as his Lord and Savior.
