Dave Emigh, the Pastor of Family and Community, humbly shares his powerful journey of redemption. You'll hear how a decision to drink and drive 25 years ago tragically resulted in the deaths of three young adults. And then how God powerfully walked with Dave through a very public trial, a felony conviction, through time in prison, to then serving as a pastor. You're going to be blown away by how God’s love and grace transformed lives, brought beauty out of the ashes of this story, and even went so far as to redeem the date that Dave went to prison.

Key Takeaways:

My prayer today is that through Dave's story, we would discover three key gospel truths: 1) Our choices do not put us beyond the reach of God's love. 2) Our past does not disqualify us from ministry. 3) Our traumas do not stand in the way of God's purposes being fulfilled in our lives.

Dave’s Dad: “Dave, I tried to fix everything. I tried to control everything. I did everything I could to protect you, but I forgot that you were God's first. The moment I released you to Him, everything changed. It became more peaceful.”

Dave after time in prison: We all have an opportunity as ambassadors of the gospel to be Hope Dealers. That was a really impactful moment for me. I think I'll carry that with me all the days of my life
