Phil's daughter Phyllis opens up about the story behind her book, I Never Knew, and the hardships she faced during the 44 years before her reunion with the Robertson family. Phyllis reflects on the difficult and sometimes dark road that shaped her, the calling that led her into counseling children and families, and the surprising tenderness Phil showed her during the six years they spent together before his passing. Jase and Al connect her story to their own family wounds, the way counseling helped their marriages and children, and the biblical picture of moving from fear into sonship through Christ.
