A Conversation with Derek Farr, Micah's dad

Hope After Child Loss/The Empty Chair Endeavor

For the majority of us, dates on our calendars represent a 24 hour segment of time that may be quite ordinary other than reminders of appointments, school events, etc. For some, however, a date on the same calendar represents a life shattering event that forever changes the trajectory of their lives. For Derek and Becky Farr, it came on September 28, 2021 when they received the news that their beloved son, Micah, had been killed in an early morning traffic accident at the young age of 27. As a career law enforcement officer and pastor, Derek was well acquainted with death and grief, but nothing could have adequately prepared him for the sudden, unexpected loss of his own son. Join our conversation as Derek and I discuss the impact losing Micah has had on his and his family's lives, his faith, and how GOD has so lovingly been restoring all the broken pieces. This story is one of GOD's kindness and faithfulness in the face of unspeakable tragedy and pain, and one that, I believe, will leave you with the certain hope that GOD can restore meaning, purpose, and hope to you on your personal grief journey.
