Pivot Or Die

In Part 2 of Jonathan Ferguson’s story, Seth Kaser continues the conversation with Jonathan about the loss of his adopted son, Silas, while serving as a missionary in Kenya.

Jonathan shares what happened after Silas passed away: telling their young sons, being surrounded by their Kenyan church community, returning to the States, wrestling with anger, and learning how to grieve without easy answers. He also talks about what actually helps when someone is grieving, why presence matters more than explanations, and how therapy, faith, and community helped him keep going.

This is a deeply honest conversation about child loss, adoption, grief, faith, and finding hope when life does not make sense.
