Based in a small Texas town, Chrissy Cogdell shares her soul and exposes the pain of child loss, the futility of fighting against the chaos of life, and the joy found in the rescuing grace of Jesus. She has seven children and twelve grandchildren that she fondly refers to as "his, mine, and theirs.”
In the middle of the mess, Chrissy and her husband Blake have established a non-profit called First Touch Family to support other families of child loss.
