In this episode, you will hear the powerful story of how Beth Thorp and her husband turned a personal tragedy, the death of their teenage son Mitchell, into something meaningful, while keeping faith in God’s plan.

When there is a serious childhood illness in the family, 75% of families will divorce or separate. The Thorps created the Mitchell Thorp Foundation in honor of the tragic death of their son. Mitchell Thorp Foundation's mission is to support families whose children suffer from life-threatening illnesses, diseases, and disorders by providing financial, emotional, and resource support to their desperate situations. It is based on the experience the Thorpe family went through (www.mitchellthorp.org). To date, none of the hundreds of families and thousands of kids they have helped have ended in divorce or separation.

Beth Thorp has recently published Mitchel’s story called ANEW Creation: Finding Meaning in the Midst of Tragedy. More information about the story is available at www.anewcreation.org.
