“I LOOKED OVER MY SHOULDER, AND THERE HE WAS, FACE DOWN, INSIDE OUR GATED LOCKED POOL……HE WAS LIFELESS, HIS FACE WAS BLUE……”
“THE DOCTOR CAME IN AND TOLD US THERE WAS ZERO PERCENT CHANCE OF HIS BRAIN EVER FUNCTIONING RIGHT AGAIN……”
I warn you, this is not an easy episode to listen to, and you will cry just like I did.
This week you’re going to hear the emotional and tragic story of country music superstar GRANGER SMITH.
Every parent’s worst nightmare came true for Granger and his wife, Amber, in 2019 when their son, River, drowned in a pool accident, plunging Granger and his family into a world of deep despair.
But his story is also about a man finding a path of REDEMPTION AND PURPOSE after a spiritual encounter, leaving the music business behind to pursue a future in ministry, which Granger details in his recently released book, Like a River: Finding the Faith and Strength to Move Forward After Loss and Heartache.
Although losing his child is a difficult story to hear, Granger’s story is also about FAITH, HOPE, and finding PEACE after your world has been turned upside down.
Since that moment, he has sought ANSWERS to the most profound questions in life, taking him in new directions he never could have imagined.
Above all else, our hour spent together is a deep discussion of how GOD impacts our lives in ways we can’t begin to understand until we’re going through challenging times.
From these times, one of the great LESSONS OF LIFE is that when rising from the worst of all imaginable tragedies, we are often reborn…
And just like Granger Smith, we find our TRUE LIFE’S PURPOSE as part of our healing process.
