A Life Cut Short, A Life Lived Long

John and Mark have both stood beside death this month — Mark marking the second anniversary of his 21-year-old son David's passing, and John saying goodbye to his 103-year-old mother-in-law Johnny, who spent her last hours on a broken hip preaching Christ to the EMTs. They talk honestly about the anguish of a life cut short and the satisfaction of a life lived long, why Scripture makes room for weeping and rejoicing at the same time, and what the shrinking lifespans of Genesis tell us about what we were made for. Listen and be reminded that God has numbered your days — and given you everything you need for the hardest ones — on this episode of PassionLife.
