Every day is a chance to witness the strength and resilience of mothers. But during May—especially on Mother’s Day—we take a special moment to honor the women who have chosen love, chosen life, and chosen to press forward even in uncertainty.

In November 2015, Davey’s wife of 7 years, Amanda Grace, was tragically murdered in a home invasion. Davey was left to pastor their church as a single dad of their 15-month-old son, Weston. 2 years later, Davey remarried, and God’s redemption story began to unfold. Davey and his new wife, Kristi, have devoted their lives to helping people through their valleys in life and teaching them that when following Jesus, nothing is wasted. Davey and Kristi live in Indianapolis, IN, with their three kids, Natalia, Weston, and Cohen. They founded Nothing is Wasted Ministries to help people partner with God to take back their story.
