With a woman at a look at culture from a Christian worldview, I'm John Stone Street with the

point.

Walking into the Mall of America where their five-year-old son Landon Carrie Hoffman remembers

feeling strange, she prayed quietly for protection.

Moments later, a stranger approached Landon and threw him over a third-story balcony.

The five-year-old fell 40 feet suffering broken arms, a broken leg, and a fractured skull.

Miraculously, he survived.

Listening to him breathing with the machine's beeping was the best sound I heard in my

life, his mom said, that meant he was alive.

Well, now, several years later, Carrie and Landon are sharing their story.

That day, a 24-year-old man showed up at the mall and said he was looking for someone

to kill.

But despite what he did to her son, Carrie wants people to know, she's forgiven him.

As she told ABC,

I don't believe forgiveness is a feeling, I think it's a decision you have to make.

The secular world doesn't really have a box for answered prayer or for forgiveness like

this.

The Hoffman Family does.

Thank God.
