One of the things that makes this life so interesting is that
something can happen that’s life-changing, when you least expect
it.



I
mean, you’re just going about your day – stopping at the grocery
store, or putting gas in your car, just a routine day. Then something
totally unexpected happens, right in front of you.



I
remember one time when I was just on my way to work in the morning.
Just driving on this rural road in Maine, and there was a pickup
truck in front of me. And there was a man riding in the back – in
the open bed of the truck. He was standing, facing forward, just
hanging out. All of a sudden that truck went to the right, off the
road, right into a power pole. I don’t know what caused the driver
to lose control, but fortunately there were no serious injuries. Even
the guy in the truck bed was mostly okay. But it just happened so
fast.



My
guest today is Jayson. He was having a pretty normal day, just
running some errands.




Then
he found himself unexpectedly witnessing an attempted murder.
