MEMORIAL DAY SPECIAL: Grief in Afghanistan (Encore) - Jim Payne

Published: May 27, 2024, 8 a.m.

In 2005, Jim deployed to the Middle East as part of a Navy SEAL platoon, alongside 15 of his closest friends and brothers-in-arms. Partway during their deployment, his team suffered devastating losses in the mountains of Afghanistan in an incident detailed in the best-selling book and hit movie \u201cLone Survivor\u201d.\n\nAs Jim grappled with crippling grief, it was all he could do, to cling to the One who offered any glimmer of hope.\n\nNote: We\u2019re re-releasing Jim\u2019s story today in honor of Memorial Day, when we remember and honor those who have served and fallen while defending our country. This story was originally released in 2021.\xa0\n\nShow notes and book drawing @ https://compelledpodcast.com/episodes/encore-jim-payne\n\n++++++++++++\n\nCompelled is a seasonal podcast using gripping, immersive storytelling to celebrate the powerful ways God is transforming Christians around the world.\n\nThese Christian testimonies are raw, true, and powerful.
