This week Gerry meets with Dave Szott, who is the chaplain for the New York Jets. Dave and Gerry talk about the Fathers to Future Men Pheasant Hunt, the boys who attend, and the abuse they have gone through. Dave relates the story in his life of dealing with their oldest son, Shane, and the severe disabilities with which he was born. It is a reminder that God’s Word doesn’t say IF we are going to have difficulties, but WHEN, and how His grace can carry us through.

This week's program is a look back at a day when Dan Ryks should have died in the ice-cold water of the St. Croix River in Minnesota. Dan was thrown from his boat a hundred yards out, heavily laden with winter clothes, and he did not have his life jacket on. He could not return to the boat as it was going in “death circles” at full speed and he knew he would be cut to pieces. When he realized his situation he knew that only God could save him and that’s how he prayed. Beating all the medical odds, Dan is alive today to tell the story of how God answers prayer and made Himself much more real in Dan's life.
