Episode 66: Cops and Criminals

In this episode of One Broken Life, John Stroup sits down with Jake Miller, a police officer, for a real and honest conversation about the unseen weight law enforcement officers carry every day.

Jake opens up about the hardships from his past, the pressure that comes with the badge, and the personal battles that don’t always show on the outside. He shares his raw story of father wounds he has carried for years and how, instead of letting that pain define him, he allowed it to shape him into a better father, a better cop, and a better man.

This episode is a powerful picture of what it looks like when a cop and a criminal come together to share hope. It is about redemption, understanding both sides of the line, and proving that brokenness does not have to be the end of the story.

ONE BROKEN LIFE is a production of Freeway Ministries in Springfield Missouri. It is a series of unique conversations exploring what God can do through ONE BROKEN LIFE. Throughout this podcast, you will hear the stories of real life transformations from those who have been restored from the pit of life. Throughout the discussion, John Stroup will dig deeper into the lives of people who have been broken and radically redeemed by God's grace.

In this episode of One Broken Life, John Stroup sits down with Traie and Savanna Odom for a raw, powerful, and hope-filled conversation that doesn’t hold back. Together, they share their stories of addiction, life on the streets, jail and prison time, and the devastation their choices brought into their lives and the lives of others. But their story doesn’t end there—but God.

Traie is a graduate of the Freeway Ministries Discipleship Program and the Timothy Project Internship Program. After Traie completed the program, he and Savanna entered into a God-honoring courtship and were married, choosing to build their relationship on faith, accountability, and obedience to Christ. Today, Traie serves as the Freeway Director in Sanford, Florida, where he also leads a men’s house and boldly preaches the gospel. Savanna stands as a strong leader alongside her husband, faithfully serving their family and ministry as a devoted wife and mother.

As parents of two beautiful children, Traie and Savanna reflect on who they were before Christ and the destruction left in the wake of their past—but also on the incredible redemption God has brought forth. Their testimony is a powerful reminder that no one is beyond saving and that God can take a broken life and use it to shake the gates of hell.

This is a full-circle story of grace, transformation, and the relentless power of God to make all things new.
