Raised by a single mom in South Elgin, Illinois, Eric faced financial hardship and an absent father, but his mother introduced him to Jesus, a foundation that would guide his life and ministry.Eric shares how a college rededication led to a clear call to ministry and how he and his wife, Rachel, intentionally discipled their three children through everyday moments. Now a grandfather of seven, he reflects on the joy of seeing generations of his family walking with the Lord.He also opens up about a difficult season marked by chronic pain, multiple back surgeries, and depression. Through prayer, biblical counsel, and the support of his wife, Eric experienced God's faithfulness in the darkness. His story is a powerful reminder that surrender to Christ matters in every season of life.-- Resources from the episode:Rolling Hills Community ChurchCare & Counseling MinistryServe at Rolling HillsJoin A GroupWatch Online ","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/_VhUL9ELgl0zs5gwQAjpsT8Xk3tB820AC3Y_hj3EiwE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85ZTAx/Y2RmZDk1ZGY0ZWM5/MWRhMGRkMDUyM2Nj/MzU0OS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
