Life After a Mass Shooting: A Father’s Story of Grief and Grace
"Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead..." (Philippians 3:13).
Paul isn’t asking us to erase the past. He’s showing us how to live with hope, even when the past carries deep pain.
In today’s episode, you’ll hear a father share his story after the loss of his daughter in a mass shooting.
On November 7, 2018 Kristina Morisette, along with eleven others, were killed in a mass shooting at Borderline Bar and Grill in Thousand Oaks, Ca.
Michael's journey isn’t about forgetting. It’s about finding a path forward in the middle of unimaginable grief—about leaning into faith and moving forward with love and courage.
It’s a reminder that sometimes the greatest act of faith is simply taking the next step, even when the road ahead feels uncertain.
While this podcast focuses on Michael's story, the podcast was created to honor all those who have lost loved ones in mass shootings and to explore how families move forward from these tragic events.
Others who lost their lives at Borderline are Sean Adler, Cody (Gifford) Coffman, Blake Dingman, Jake Dunham, Sgt. Ron Helus, Alaina Housley, Daniel Manrique, Justin Meek, Marky Meza Jr., Tel Orfanos, and Noel Sparks
