The Counter Culture Mom Show with Tina Griffin - Desperate Firefighter Rescued Others While Fighting to Save Himself - Jason Sautel

Jason Sautel was a firefighter in Oakland, California, when his world came crashing down. As he watched a suicidal man jump to his death off the Oakland Bay Bridge, Jason came face-to-face with his own demons, and there was only one way out: Jesus Christ. Today, Jason is a retired firefighter, a Christian, and the author of a book that gives many people hope: The Rescuer - One Firefighter’s Story of Courage, Darkness, and the Relentless Love That Saved Him. Jason shares the harrowing stories of darkness on the streets of Oakland, confronting the worst kinds of tragedies, and how the grace of Jesus Christ and the good news of the Gospel saved his own life. He wrote his book to let people know they’re not alone in their pain. There is a way out: hell is real, but so is Jesus, and so is the hope of salvation and eternal life.
