    Let's talk about suicide | Episode 49 | EJ Harrison

    Welcome back to another episode of The Chosen Podcast. We're glad that you're here with us!

    Suicide is such a heavy topic. So much so that not many people want to talk about it. EJ Harrison was a Pastor's Kid, star athlete, and had many friends growing up. So from the outside looking in, he had it all. That couldn't be further from the truth.

    Check out this episode as EJ shares his story and talks about what led him to wanting to take his life, and attempting to do so multiple times. EJ also shares what got him through such a dark time and offers some great advice to those that are going through a similar situation today.
