EP. 9 (A Special Episode) Upon This Rock: The Day Thaine Chase Forgave His Mother and She Passed Away

This may be the most emotional conversation we have ever recorded.

In this deeply personal episode of Inside the Mind of Thaine Chase, Thaine opens up about the story behind Upon This Rock — a novel born from forgiveness, faith, and a lifetime of unresolved pain.

As he shares the truth behind writing this book, he reveals something that still leaves him breathless:
He finished the final scene… typed “The End”… and seconds later received a text that his mother had passed away.

This wasn’t just a novel.
It was a goodbye.
It was a reckoning.
It was the burial of anger decades in the making.

In this powerful interview, Thaine speaks about:

Growing up without his mother

Forgiving her after 59 years

The dedication that changed everything

Losing his father and walking away from faith

The unexpected spiritual moment that brought him back

The sacred scene that now means more than he can explain

This episode is not about religion.
It’s about forgiveness.
It’s about grief.
It’s about the courage to finally open your heart.

If you have ever struggled with a parent, with faith, with loss, or with unfinished conversations — this conversation will stay with you.

And at the end, Thaine shares something just as powerful:
A heartfelt thank you to the readers who walk this journey with him.

💛 Some books are written to entertain.
This one was written to heal.
