Walking in Joy After Tragedy: Carrie Eaton on Child Loss, Near-Death Experiences & Faith

In this powerful episode, host Dave Roberts sits down with author and speaker Carrie Eaton to discuss one of the most profound journeys of grief, faith, and healing you'll ever hear.

In 1995, Carrie lost her 3-year-old daughter Chelsea in a devastating accident. What followed was years of deep grief, depression, and searching — until a miraculous encounter with God changed everything. Carrie also shares what happened when she died twice on the operating table and experienced a glimpse of heaven, hearing the laughter of her daughter and her father on the other side.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• How Carrie survived the unimaginable loss of her child and found joy again
• What she experienced during her near-death experience and what heaven looked like
• The moment God helped her release 27 years of guilt and self-blame
• How writing her book Walking in the Fullness of Joy After Tragedy became a healing journey
• Her heart for the families affected by the 2025 Camp Mystic Flood tragedy
• Why obedience is "the highest form of spiritual warfare"
• How faith, grief, and healing evolve over time
• Carrie is also working on her upcoming book, Faith Without Borders, which documents her deepening walk with God over the last three years.

🙏 Whether you've experienced loss, are supporting someone who has, or are searching for hope — this episode will leave you encouraged that joy is on the other side of tragedy.
