Carson McKay
Carson McKay, voiced by Dave Bitran, is a newcomer to the Odyssey world, though his family has been around since 2005. Since his family's entrance, he was referenced many times due to his children (Samantha and Grady) missing him so much, though he was never given a name.
Family
Carson is Grady and Samantha McKay's father and is married to Kristi McKay.
Personality
Carson is recovering from a gambling addiction, without the benefit of having God to help him. His interaction with his family proves that although he puts on a bravado, he is terrified that he won't be accepted by them. Carson is very driven in whatever he does, which leads him to seeking forgiveness from his family, though his conversation with Whit proves that he's not quite sure what forgiveness is. Carson loves his family deeply, but is scared of hurting them again, and honestly wants what's best for them.

The problem is that you think you can fix your mistakes on your own, and you can't, Carson. God is the only one who can fix what's wrong with you. |
