A Tennessee man is giving thanks to a higher power after his daughter miraculously walked away from a brutal car crash with minimal injuries. Kevin Mullins, a father and a former pastor, described a harrowing scene where his daughter's car was totaled after allegedly she got distracted, causing the vehicle to slam into a guard rail and flip over, as reported by WSMV4. The crash left the car mangled with the guardrail piercing the windshield, yet his 17-year-old daughter Kenzie managed to escape with only scratches on her hands and feet, much to the astonishment of her family and responders who arrived at the scene.
Mullins didn't hesitate to attribute his daughter's survival to divine intervention, stating, "When you look at that, that was just the first thing that came to mind was what an awesome God we serve that he allowed my daughter to come through that," according to his interview with WVLT. His subsequent Facebook video, capturing this sentiment, went viral amassing over 13 million views; viewers captivated not only by the dramatic survival but also touched by the father's firm belief in the face of such potential tragedy this outcome that became a global talking point across social platforms.
The incident, which unfolded on a Gibson County road on March 24, has prompted Mullins to publicly reflect on the role of faith during life’s perilous moments. In a video that rapidly circulated online Mullins declared, "My god is amazing, he is amazing," which was widely shared across various social media platforms, found resonance with almost 250,000 Facebook users and sparked a wave of supportive hashtags like #Godisgood, as detailed by ChurchLeaders.com.
Mullins, who never anticipated his post would reach such a broad audience considering his past experience preaching to a few hundred people max at most understands the universal quest for hope is what propelled his family's story onto the world stage, he told WSMV4. His message extends beyond mere survival, urging those with loved ones to cherish every moment: "If she had not survived the wreck, he's still God. If you got them here, tell them you love them," he pleaded. As Kenzie now takes gradual steps toward driving again, the family continues to rely heavily on their faith, which they credit with seeing them through this life-threatening experience.
