Join us for a powerful and deeply moving episode with Jen Dyal, sharing her journey of grief and belief after the loss of her oldest son, Jack, at just nine years old in 2016. Jack was a beloved, kind, and unifying spirit. Jen recounts the auto-pedestrian accident that occurred on her husband Nate's birthday, the chaotic hospital experience, and the agonizing decision against a medically induced coma for her "vivacious nine-year-old boy". She describes the heartbreaking goodbyes before Jack's organ donation, accompanied by the "Come and Get Your Love" song by Redbone.
A central theme is forgiveness. Jen remarkably shares immediately forgiving the driver, who hit Jack, having met her just weeks prior. She discusses the contrasting ways she and Nate processed forgiveness, and her children's developmental paths to understanding.
Through profound loss, Jen believes God doesn't cause suffering but knows what's coming due to human choices. She emphasizes the power of choice in handling grief and forgiveness, and a Savior who carries her through every decision, always present without forcing her to come to Him.
