From Losing a Child to Helping 60,000 Grieving Families | Mark Tripodi
Grief can destroy everything—your marriage, your faith, your identity. But what if God can use the worst thing that ever happened to you to build something beautiful?
In this powerful episode, Chris sits down with Mark Tripodi, who lost his 3-year-old son Bobby to bacterial meningitis 25 years ago. Mark shares the raw, real story of how that tragedy shattered his life—and how an encounter with God at his son’s grave at midnight changed everything.
Mark and his wife Christy went from “checking the box” Catholics to founding Cornerstone of Hope, a grief support ministry that has served over 60,000 people. In this conversation, Mark shares the roadmap through grief, why the sacraments sustained him, and what God whispered to him in his darkest moment.
If you’re walking through grief, loving someone who is, or wondering how God could allow suffering—this conversation is for you.
