Chad shares how slow, often discouraging years of church planting trained him not to quit and shaped his response when blindness “slammed” into his life. You’ll hear the medical timeline of his vision loss, the emotional and family impact, how counseling helped with trauma, and the practical audio-based tools and methods he now uses to study and memorize the Bible without sight.
