taylor logsdon: "roots: a life, a death & being born again"

from the wildflowers · host will young

Send us Fan Maillife is a process. & yet, somehow, so is death. everyday we live, we exist in the tension between the two…for every breath, we die a little more. poets, theologians, songwriters, philosophers of every sort alike have tried to put words to this experience that we all know deep in our very bones. & still, there is so much unknown & so many questions to be asked. i think of child loss…for me, having had lost our firstborn oliver at just 2 days old, it came as a shock (to put it lightly) when not even a year and a half after our loss we got the call that our good friend taylor had lost her sweet little boy elijah—who was only 5 at the time—in a car accident. 💔heads up, because this is not an easy one…in this episode, nearly 5 years after her loss, taylor & i discuss her story. taylor so graciously & bravely retreads her life, from growing up, working through faith & doubts alongside jesus, having a little boy enter her life & dramatically change it, his traumatic exit from this earth & the journey to get to where she is now. there is such a beauty here in taylor’s story…one of roots put down to hold firm. one of life, death & even of rebirth. a word: loss. it’s a touchy subject for many. whether you have or not (yet), it is something we will ALL have to become familiar with. if you’ve lost, i see you & i am so sorry for your loss…& if you haven’t, let this episode give you insight to those around you who have…lead with love. listen. & be. 💛Support the showany & all support is so so appreciated!  peace. -willfollow the wildflowers podcast over on instagramintro music by yours truly at the young band
