Matthew Bunker was a deep thinker with an affinity for C.S. Lewis, a graduate of West Point, a talented photographer, and a man who loved God and enjoyed His creation. In the first half of this two-part episode, his parents Joe and Carolyn share the story of their remarkable son, who went missing 2 ½ years ago doing something he loved, descending Mount Rainier on a backcountry hike and ski descent. Three days later, his body was spotted by search and rescue air patrol, where it remains interred to this day in a glacial crevasse. As the family prepared for Matthew’s memorial service, Joe remembered a document they had signed years before, acknowledging God’s ownership of all they had, including their precious son. I believe your heart will be touched and your faith will be renewed by the story of a very special quitclaim deed.
