Kidnapped and Taken to the Other Side of the World: The Lauren Burns Story (Part Two) | Ep. 56

When Catherine’s 7-year-old daughter, Lauren, was kidnapped and taken to Jordan, every door slammed shut. The State Department couldn’t help. The courts couldn’t intervene. No child had ever been recovered from Jordan under these circumstances. Then, in a grand jury room, a stranger stood up. He was the foreman. And he told Catherine, “I can help.” What followed was a rescue so dangerous and so improbable it sounds like fiction: three former U.S. Special Operations soldiers traveling into hostile territory, tracking a missing child through the streets of Jerash, and relying on nothing but prayer, courage, and divine timing to find her. Guided by a sudden, God-given memory of a steep hill and a hidden stairwell, Catherine led the men straight to the home where her daughter was being held. But finding Lauren was only the beginning. In a heart-stopping operation, the team hijacked a school bus, pulled Lauren from her seat, and raced through Jordan while police, soldiers, and border agents closed in. At the King Hussein Bridge — surrounded by machine-gun towers and armed guards — Catherine and Lauren came within minutes of being captured. As Jordanian authorities finally realized the truth and raced to stop them, Catherine and her daughter were already rolling across the bridge into Israel… just seconds beyond their reach. On the other side, strangers wept and praised God as they witnessed the impossible: a kidnapped child brought home alive. This is the true story of a mother who refused to give up, a rescue team willing to risk everything, and a miracle that unfolded step by step in the middle of fear, fog, and faith. Because when the SON shines, even the most impossible rescue becomes possible.
