Summary

TBH 401

"We're all going to die. That's what's on my mind. I'm going to die, and I'm never gonna see my three-year-old again. I'm hot, I'm sweating, And I still don't get in the taxi and leave."

----------

This week's episode plays like a movie.

It began with a song that bubbled up unexpectedly: "Comedy Tonight." Not comedy as in jokes or punch lines, but comedy in the ancient Greek sense -- a story that ends with order restored, hope intact, life going on. The opposite of tragedy, where death or despair gets the final word.

In this episode, three true stories from the Touched By Heaven archives unfold like scenes from film or television. Each contains danger, darkness, or apparent loss -- but none of them end there. A bullet that should have killed. A killer interrupted. A dream that warned.

These stories are familiar, peculiar, appealing, and at times appalling -- yet each one closes with uplift. God steps into the frame, fires the flare gun, and reminds us: this is not a tragedy.
