In this deeply moving episode, Duane Miller shares a powerful testimony that spans over 50 years, featuring profound themes of tragedy, guilt, and incredible divine grace. Beginning with his Christian upbringing and life-changing experience at a Christian camp, Duane recounts a harrowing canoeing accident that claimed the lives of three close friends and family members, leading him into a spiral of guilt and shame. After years of depression and deflection, a pivotal moment of confession brings Duane the healing and redemption he craved, completely transforming his life and faith. Through vivid recollections and heartfelt reflections, Duane illustrates the relentless love and grace of God, offering hope and encouragement to those battling their own dark struggles.

1 John 1:8-9 NIV If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
