The Dan Scott Show Podcast

Hindsight is a beautiful thing. It's gives us the ability to look back and see God moving around the chess pieces of our lives, things we can't see in the moment.

Fourteen years after daughter Emma - age 7 - was struck and killed by a car, the grief is still very much present for Eric Boughman and wife Kim.
