In this episode of Unwritten, Trevor sits down with Jim Beckman to talk about in the middle of a silent retreat, a walk through a dark graveyard led to a profound, life-altering message from God about deep childhood healing.

Whether you're someone who is interested in sharing the stories of the movement of the Holy Spirit, or just curious about how God brings healing in unexpected places, this conversation will offer a powerful lesson on the ways in which God continues to pursue us and heal us if we only let him.

What You’ll Hear:

• Jim recounts the setting of his silent retreat during the COVID period in the fall of 2020, where he utilized rooms at the pastoral center in Oklahoma City and conducted the retreat over the phone with his spiritual director.

• A mysterious encounter in the cemetery where Jim first saw a lone solar-powered light next to a headstone, only to discover over a hundred of them—an "impossible" proliferation—the next morning, ultimately leading him to the headstone of a little boy named Daniel.

• The intense message Jim received from the Lord after learning that Daniel had died in a house fire at age eight: "When you were eight, your whole house burned down and something in you died, and I want to bring it back to life again," initiating a two-to-two-and-a-half-year healing effort.
