The episode delves into the tragic drowning of their 7-month-old son, Jonathan, and the loss of their granddaughter, Gracie, due to their daughter Carrie’s preeclampsia. Pam recounts the guilt and blame she faced after Jonathan’s accident, emphasizing Bill’s immediate forgiveness as a pivotal act of grace. The couple shares how God’s sovereignty and preparation sustained them, highlighting moments like a premonitory dream and scripture readings. They discuss avoiding fairness in parenting to reduce entitlement and the importance of looking forward to God’s purpose rather than dwelling on past pain.
