In this special episode, our good friend Steve Prince sits down with retired police officer David Lily, who shares a powerful and emotional story about a moment that haunted him for years. As a former officer from Dallas PD and Grand Rapids PD, David opens up about the guilt and shame he carried with him from an incident in one of our own Set Free employee's neighborhoods. He recounts the traumatic experience and how it affected his mental health and the journey he took to learn how to forgive himself. With humility and care, David shares his experiences serving in the gang center and how his path from pastor training to police work has given him a unique perspective on the importance of submitting to our ultimate authority, God the Father, in policing. This interview is a must-watch for anyone interested in the human side of law enforcement and the importance of mental health support.
