Episode notes

At 16 years old, he was shot during a triple homicide. Two of his friends died.

He shouldn’t have survived. But in the middle of chaos… he started chanting the holy name of God.

In this episode of the 8th Element Podcast, Dava shares the night that changed everything — from selling drugs as a teenager to facing death head-on, forgiving the man who killed his friends, and discovering a faith that could never be shaken again. This conversation goes deeper than survival.

We talk about: - What happens in your mind when you think you’re about to die - Karma, accountability, and personal responsibility - Forgiveness after trauma - Why he doesn’t question whether God exists - Why society desperately needs to make loving God “cool” again.

This isn’t theory. It’s lived experience.

If you’ve ever questioned faith, struggled with bitterness, or wondered whether transformation is really possible — this episode will challenge you.
