A Conversation with Chris Locke, Sean's dad

Hope After Child Loss/The Empty Chair Endeavor

Clinical depression is no respecter of persons, having impacted approximately 29% of the population of the U.S., according to the latest 2023 statistics, and these numbers continue to rise. Tragically, depression, all too often, results in suicide or attempted suicide, leaving in its path a wave of unspeakable pain and grief forever altering the lives of those left behind. July 18, 2018 would forever mark the lives of Chris Locke and his family when they learned their beautiful 23 year old son Sean had taken his own life, and with no warning. A star athlete with a promising future, and loved by his family and friends, Sean’s private battle with depression would claim his life that day, leaving loved ones shocked and bewildered. Join us as Chris and I talk about his, now, 5 year long journey of how GOD has been restoring his brokenness and turning his pain into a passion for helping young people discover meaning and purpose through the establishment of SL24 Unlocke the Light, and Sean’s House.
