Lisa Thacker joins me once again on the podcast today.  If you missed last week’s episode, you’ll want to go back and listen to hear the story of her son Dalton, who took his own life at the age of 16 with absolutely no warning signs or indications of what he was about to do. Today we extend our conversation to cover a wide range of very practical issues faced by bereaved parents, particularly those who have experienced the loss of a child to suicide, and discuss how she now finds herself taking up Dalton's microphone to share the hope of Jesus with others.Click HERE to listen to Part One of my interview with Lisa Click HERE to access Lisa's blog - "Surviving My Past Because Of My Future"Click HERE to visit the Dalton's Difference Facebook page. All views expressed by guests on this podcast are theirs alone, and may not represent the Statement of Faith and Statement of Belief of the While We're Waiting ministry.

Taking the Microphone - Lisa Thacker

Dalton Thacker was a vibrant young man with an infectious smile and a passion for sports and history.  He loved to tell jokes and make people laugh, and in 2020, he chose "grit" as his word for the year.  He was a goal setter with a desire to score 1,000 points in basketball over his high school career, and to make it to state in track and field.  On May 14, 2020, Dalton took his own life with absolutely no warning signs or indication of what he was about to do, leaving his family reeling in the aftermath.  His mom, Lisa, joins me today to talk about their experience, likening it to walking on a tightrope.  Over time, she came to accept that when there are no answers, Jesus is the answer. Listen in and be encouraged.  Click HERE to access Lisa's blog - "Surviving My Past Because Of My Future"Click HERE to visit the Dalton's Difference Facebook page.  Lisa refers to an interview I did with Kim Erickson.  Click HERE to listen to Part One of that interview, and HERE to listen to Part Two.  All views expressed by guests on this podcast are theirs alone, and may not represent the Statement of Faith and Statement of Belief of the While We're Waiting ministry.
