-Key Points-
Brandon shares a very personal story of his wife, Rachel, being diagnosed with cancer
The journey the family embarked on was remarkable and turned into time of ministry
Brandon says that Living out Loud is the most beautiful gift!
Many people are afraid of dying… it was the hardest moment when Brandon sat down with his three children and explained that Mammy was going to be with Jesus
Rachel’s strong faith, and beautiful time of ministry to the very last moment has turned many hearts toward Jesus, an incredible legacy
Brandon says that Rachel was organizing things like kids haircuts, dentist appointments to the very end, she was truly the most selfless person he knows
The biggest blessing is being together, communicate with your spouse, don’t take this time for granted
Most men don’t talk about struggles and Brendon keeps sharing Rachel’s story to encourage other man to share theirs too
Life is short and tomorrow you could get a diagnosis you do not expect, it happens every day.
Keep your people tight, love them over-appreciate them!
