From Firehouse to Pulpit: Pastor Richard Bennett's Journey Through Trauma and Grace
What happens when the trauma we experience becomes the very path that leads us to purpose?
In this profound and moving segment of Trauma Tipping Points.
Dr. Walt Kasmir welcomes Pastor and retired professor Richard Bennett—firefighter, paramedic, grief recovery specialist, and founder of Dayspring Family Church—to explore the universality of trauma and the transformative power of grace. From childhood domestic violence to the solemn silence of emergency calls, Pastor Bennett shares how trauma shaped his journey to the pulpit and beyond. Together, they discuss the unspoken wounds carried by first responders, the stigma around mental health in the Black church, and the sacred necessity of naming pain to heal it.
You’ll hear stories that are raw yet redemptive, painful yet powerful—reminding us all that trauma is not a tombstone, but a turning point.
This is not just a conversation about grief; it’s a clarion call for courage, community, and Christ-centered healing.
