Many listeners have asked to hear more of Fred's story, and in this episode, he shares it.
From a difficult childhood and experiences that left deep wounds, to the moments that shaped his faith, Fred reflects on why he often says, "I shouldn't be alive." More importantly, he shares where Christ was in the midst of the suffering—even when he couldn't see Him.
This is a story of pain, survival, grace, and the relentless love of God that pursues us through every chapter of our lives.
