Rick Burgess - A Father's Heart part 1

Rick's testimony is an amazing picture of the love and grace God gives to us during the trials we face in life. I have a dear friend who is a Christian Radio Personality who just lost a 5 year old son in a tragic accident. I know this testimony will be a help to him.

Rick, I listen to the show every morning and I'm thankful to God for you and the rest of the Crew for a great show that everyone can listen to without worrying about what will be said---May God continue to bless all of ya'll and hold you in HIs hands!!-----Mindi------Greensb oro Al

When he got the call about his son he had just gotten finished speaking at a youth conference. I was at the conference and when we heard the news, the whole atmosphere just changed. I know that I have been totally changed by this expierience. I still pray for Rick and his family.

i was at the conference last year that he was speaking at when his son died. it was so sad. i just want to say that i am in prayer for his family. today (1-19-09) marks the one year anniversary of this tragedy

God bless

his family and i go to the same church. it's tragic that his son died, but they are using that swimming pool to glorify God instead of blaming Him for what has happened. That takes faith and courage.

i would love to a have a downloadable version of all three parts for use in church

This is very shocking! I had been a fan of Rick & Bubba for years & watched their show when it was on Turner South. I buy their books. But I haven't listened lately and finding out that one of Rick's children had died totally shocked me!

I'm so sorry for your loss. I don't know what else to say.

Rick, I don't know you or share your faith (I'm Muslim) but when I chanced upon this video, it brought tears to my eyes. I pray to Allah to give you and your family the strength to get through this. Bronner is in heaven with Prophet Abraham; it's where all the children go in the Islamic faith.

Be strong. Be safe. And know that someone prays for you and your family from 3000 miles away.

Ryan,if you're reading or any R&B fan, please inform me how this happened. When I lived in Nashville, I became good friends with Rick,Bill(Bubba),Calvin(Speedy ),(Don Juan)DeMarco,and yourself. If you look at my login name, it might draw a clue,we hung out together from '99-'03 when I was a DJ.I now live in Phoenix.Thanks!

He somehow drowned in their family pool. Thats all I heard in the news last year. They didnt want to discuss how it happened b/c they didnt want to blame his wife or God...they wanted to focus on the joy that Bronner had brought them and speak of God's love.
