Too Far Gone? A Story of Tragedy, Hope, and Redemption

No Sanity Required

*In this episode, we talk openly about grief, death, and personal tragedy. If these topics are difficult for you, please listen with care.*

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Blake and Taylor share their journey through professional trauma, personal tragedy, and spiritual crisis. Blake, a firefighter following in his father's footsteps, found his identity in serving others—until the cumulative weight of devastating calls and a heartbreaking miscarriage nearly destroyed his faith, his marriage, and his sense of self.

Together, Blake and Taylor recount the darkest moments of their lives: the grief of losing a child, the psychological toll of emergency service work, and the silent suffering that almost tore them apart. But through pain, confrontation, and unexpected grace, they discovered that no one is beyond redemption. This is a story about God's great grace and redemption in the lives of Blake and Taylor—and a reminder that no one is ever too broken for God to restore.
