Embraced by God in Tragedy, Transformed for a Life of Service - Joe Maemone (Pt. 1)
Serving God comes with real costs—sometimes unthinkable ones. In this powerful conversation, Joe Maemone shares his journey from successful chiropractor to nearly 30 years in Christian education. He opens up about losing his young son, walking through grief, and how God met him in the darkest moments with an embrace that forever changed his trajectory. Joe reminds us that ministry is about showing up, loving people as Christ has loved us, and trusting God with the fruit. This is a story of tragedy turned into testimony, and of a life poured out for the sake of others.
