This is the third in a series of episodes dedicated to a young woman and returning cohost, Dagmar from The Netherlands. This episode is with special returning guest and Stand to Reason speaker, Jon Noyes. Dagmar wasn't available for this recording, but Signe from Denmark joined in for this conversation about moving from atheism to Christianity, what makes the Bible a historically reliable document, and how to go from head knowledge to trusting Jesus. Dagmar has cohosted many Finding Something REAL episodes in the past four years. Although Dagmar is interested in, learned a lot about, and is drawn to Jesus, and chose to get baptized when she was a child, she has not yet decided to take a leap of faith as an adult. She has a comfortable life and enjoys partying with friends and admits that were she to give her life to Christ her life would change and people would view her differently. She's grown up in a secular culture and for this series, reached out to some friends for new faith questions including some about the credibility of Jesus, why there are so many variations of religion and Christianity, and the history of Christianity. We hope you enjoy this week's episode! ABOUT JON: Jon has worked as a speaker with Stand to Reason since 2019. A former atheist, Jon used to think belief in God was unwarranted and irresponsible. Then, after examining the evidence for Christianity he was faced with the fact that Jesus is who He says He is and the Christian worldview tells the true story of reality. Ever since Jon has been passionate about engaging the culture with honest, well-thought-out reasons why people should trust the Christian worldview. Jon brings a unique perspective to his audiences and the Stand to Reason team, having more than ten years of experience in the legal field. In 2013 Jon earned a master's degree in Christian Apologetics from Biola University, graduating with honors. Jon is a founding pastor at Soli Deo Gloria Church. He also serves on the board of directors for Life Without Limbs and Bible Thinker. More than any of this Jon is the father of four daughters and the husband of Rheanna. They live in Ventura County, CA. -- -- -- -- -- LINKS: Suicide, God, And Knowing You're Not Alone with Jon Noyes Eternity: Extreme & Scary? with Jon Noyes
At 8 years old he started to plan to take his own life and at 10 he executed his plan. But God also had a plan for Nick. Nick Vujicic, founder of Nick V Ministries and author of Life Without Limbs, was born without arms and legs and God is using him globally to be His hands and feet. He is bringing hope to the world championing the cause of the brokenhearted and sharing the good news of Jesus Christ. If you’ve ever wondered why God made you the way He did this conversation with Nick will encourage you and remind you that God has a plan for your life. Also, in today’s conversation we talk about those people who push our buttons. Recently Shawna has asked God to show her how that person resembles the Father as one made in His image. It’s helping her to be more loving! Lastly, the enemy wants you and I to doubt our true identity as God’s beloved child. You have a God-given destiny. You matter!Support the show: https://give.moodyradio.org/fall-share?v=def&appeal=MRWM&_gl=1%2a142i9we%2a_ga%2aNTE4MTE5MmUtY2U1Yy00YmQ3LWU4MmUtNjEwYTQ5YzAyODRj%2a_ga_4WH1937046%2aMTY5NTExODEwMS4yOTkuMC4xNjk1MTE4MTAxLjYwLjAuMA..&_ga=2.197426156.215784306.1695059984-1182841406.166859587See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Whether it's something you wrestle with personally or it's a friend who's struggling, suicide has affected all of us and is at the center of the cultural conversation. How do we engage with the culture and rising generation about suicide in a wise and productive way? How can we speak encouragement and truth to individuals who are questioning the worth of their very existence? Jon Noyes used to be an atheist who thought belief in God was unwarranted and irresponsible. Then, after examining the evidence for Christianity, he was faced with the fact that Jesus is who he says he is, and the Christian worldview tells the true story of reality. Jon has since been passionate about engaging the culture with honest reasons about Christianity, working on staff with Stand to Reason. He has more than ten years of experience in the legal field and earned a master's degree in Christian Apologetics from Biola University. Jon is a founding pastor at Soli Deo Gloria Church and serves on the board for Life Without Limbs and Bible Thinker.

Nick Vujicic, born without arms and legs, faced obstacles few could fathom. Less than 10 people worldwide have this condition. He's now a person of faith, and one of the top motivational speakers in the world. Oh—and he's married with four kids. Oh—and he graduated from college with a double major. Nick, now 35, was born with a condition known as Tetra Amelia syndrome. Not surprisingly, he faced bullying as a kid, and it continued into adolescence. Then one day his mother gave him a newspaper article to read. It was about a man coping with severe disability. The story touched Nick, and he began going deeper into his faith. Not surprisingly, as a teen, Nick constantly wondered why he was so different from everyone else. There seemed to be no purpose to his life, and depression was a very real threat. He credits his faith as the sole reason he overcame his condition. Today, he's the founder of the ministry Life Without Limbs, and he also launched a motivational speaking company. With global travel and communications taking Nick's speaking opportunities to new levels, he is absolutely passionate to share his faith. As he says—if God can use a man without arms and legs to be his hands and feet, then He will certainly use any willing heart. Who wouldn't be inspired by such a person? Nick's life perfectly fits Ephesians 2:10, which says, “For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Few of us endure something as radical as what Nick has been through. His limitations, while rare and extreme, have been supernatural inspiration for millions. How would you react to that severe kind of testing? If you focus on what you don't have, or on what you wish you were, you are missing a direct and customized blessing for you from God. Maybe you have an obstacle, or several. You feel stuck in life. And that's fine…for a little while. If nothing else, reflect on the story of Nick Vujicic, and then read one of the most beautiful verses in all the Bible: Psalm 139:14; it says, “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. I know that full well.” You are wonderfully made, perfectly suited for the purpose God has always had in store for you. Let's pray. Lord, how many times do we wish we were someone else, or in different circumstances? Sometimes we just aren't comfortable with who we are, but your word tells us we have freedom in Christ. And as the psalmist says, we are fearfully and wonderfully made. Each of us uniquely made to do your will on this earth. Help us to keep this truth in front of our face all the time. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

In this powerful interview, we hear from Jay Harvey, Director of Prison Ministry for Life Without Limbs. Jay shares his inspiring journey of how the Lord led him into prison ministry, and how he has seen the ministry evolve over the years. With experience working with the fastest-growing demographics behind bars, women and juveniles, Jay sheds light on the challenges faced by inmates and the need for fathers in their lives. The Life Without Limbs Prison Ministry's goal is to plant churches inside prisons. Jay shares the success they've seen with the discipleship programs, Free in My Faith and Staying Free, and how they identify and equip leaders to start a church. When men and women are released from prison, Jay discusses the challenges they face and how we, as the Body of Christ, can help them know they are accepted. Jay also shares his personal learnings from countless testimonies of men and women who have found hope and purpose behind bars. He addresses some of the blind spots Christians have when doing prison ministry and shares some good things to keep in mind when sharing the gospel behind bars.
Bài Giảng: Học Cách Sống Cuộc Đời Mà Chúa Đã Kêu Gọi Bạn Sống Diễn giả: Nick Vujicic Chuyển ngữ: Đội ngũ Ba-rúc Nguồn: Saddleback Church Trong bài giảng này, Nick Vujicic nói về cách chúng ta cần phải sống cuộc đời mà Chúa đã ban cho chúng ta như thế nào. Cho dù những trở ngại mà bạn đang gặp phải trong cuộc đời có là gì đi nữa thì bạn cũng sẽ tìm thấy mọi điều mà bạn cần nơi Chúa Giêsu. Ma quỷ muốn lấy đi niềm vui của bạn và làm bạn mất tập trung, nhưng tình yêu của Chúa dành cho bạn không bao giờ thay đổi, Ngài muốn bạn hoàn tất cuộc đua mà Ngài đã dành sẵn cho bạn. Nicholas James "Nick" Vujicic, sinh ngày 4 tháng 12 năm 1982 tại Brisbane, Úc. Anh là một nhà truyền giảng Tin Lành và diễn giả truyền cảm hứng người Úc gốc Serbia, khi được sinh ra anhđã không có tứ chi mà chỉ có 1 bàn chân với 2 ngón chân nhỏ. Từ thuở ấu thơ, anh đã phải đấu tranh cả về tinh thần, tình cảm cũng như thể xác, nhưng rồi cuối cùng anh đã quyết định đối mặt với khuyết tật của mình. Năm 15 tuổi, khi đọc câu chuyện người đàn ông bị mù trong sách Phúc Âm Giăng, Nick nhận ra là "Tôi không phải là một người bị trừng phạt. Tôi là sự sáng tạo đặc biệt để Chúa bày tỏ công việc của Ngài qua tôi..." Năm 17 tuổi, Nick thành lập mục vụ Life Without Limbs (nghĩa là "Cuộc sống không có tay chân"). Vujicic đi khắp nơi trên thế giới để diễn thuyết truyền động lực về cuộc sống của một người khuyết tật để mang hy vọng và ý nghĩa cuộc sống cho những người khác đặc biệt là các bạn thanh thiếu niên. Khán giả Việt Nam khá quen thuộc với bộ phim tài liệu về cuộc đời của anh có tên là: Mục đích lớn hơn của cuộc sống, và cuốn sách: Cuộc sống không giới hạn, của anh.

Jonathan Noyes joins Tim to talk about why he gave up on atheism and how he came to where he is today. This is a conversation about logic, about reasoning and research, about doubt, and ultimately, about faith. Jonathan is a former atheist who has lived a journey that few have. He's now a Christian. https://traffic.libsyn.com/forcedn/shapingopinion/Jon_Noyes_-_Confessions_of_a_Former_Atheist.mp3 In 2014, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey on a number of topics. One of those topics was faith and religion. According to that survey, atheists comprise roughly three percent of the total U.S. Population. A slightly greater number identified as agnostics. For our purposes here today, let's talk about what is an atheist versus and agnostic. An atheist is someone who does not believe there is a God. An agnostic is someone who has not decided for themselves whether there is a God or not. They leave open the possibility there could be a higher power, but they tend to reject God as we know Him in our society. For comparison, let's look at the numbers for the two most dominant religious faiths in America. Christianity and Judaism. According to Statista.com, the United States is home to the largest number of Christians in the world. As of 2010, there were roughly 247 million Christians in America. This in a country of 330 million. In 2020, the Pew Research Center conducted another study to look at Judaism in America. It found that about 5.8 million adults identify as Jewish by religion, and another 1.5 million identify as Jewish with no religion. This amounts to roughly 2.5 percent of the total U.S. population. Other religions are represented in smaller numbers in the U.S. population. These numbers may surprise you. They did me. But, no matter what study you look at, the number o atheists in America is on the rise. Jonathan Noyes was one of those atheists. Links Stand to Reason Bio - Jonathan Noyes Roman's, Chapter One C.S.

Happy Wednesday! Today, though Grayce could not join the recording, Janell sits down with Jon Noyes to chat about a few of Grayce's questions about hell and eternal punishment. First, Jon shares about how he came to belief in Christ. He talks about his life before Christ and how his life has become different afterwards. They then get into a discussion about hell, punishment, sin, and more. They discuss the holiness of God, the human senses of Justice, and what happens when someone who didn't get the opportunity to hear about God dies. They also chat about emotionalism, relativism, and other cultural trends. We hope you enjoy this episode! About Jonathan NoyesJonathan has worked as a speaker with Stand to Reason since 2019. A former atheist, Jonathan used to think belief in God was unwarranted and irresponsible. Then, after examining the evidence for Christianity he was faced with the fact that Jesus is who He says He is and the Christian worldview tells the true story of reality. Since then Jon has been passionate about engaging the culture with honest, well thought-out reasons why people should trust the Christian worldview. Jon has developed a series of passionate talks to do just that.In 2013 Jonathan earned a master's degree in Christian Apologetics from Biola University, graduating with honors. Jon brings a unique perspective to his audiences and the Stand to Reason team, having more than ten years' experience in the legal field and serving more than five as a pastor in his local church. Jon also serves on the board of directors for Life Without Limbs and at Beacon Hill Classical Academy, where he teaches discipleship.___________________We would love to thank our Patrons for all their amazing support!

Narcissism. I watched Jada Pinkett smith's red table talk where she had a psychologist as a guest. Dr Ramani Durvasula shared the traits of a narcissist and In the spirit of becoming a better friend to my friends, I found myself hoping I’m not a narcissist. We think of someone who is so self-absorbed that they make everything about them, and while I don’t think I do, I did check a box or two while watching the programme. In the end, I concluded that I need to stay on that path to becoming a better, less self-absorbed person generally. I truly believe we were created to fulfil a specific purpose on earth. And purpose has to tick two boxes. One, glorify God and two, help others. And in the process of living out your purpose, you are transformed into the person worthy of carrying it. Whatever your purpose is, you have everything you need inside you to fulfil it. My favourite example of purpose is Nick Vujicic of Life Without Limbs. He was born with no arms or legs yet daily he fulfils his purpose of breaking barriers and crossing boundaries to lead people to the love of Christ that he has experienced. Nick has reached countries in a way that many haven't. We cannot deny that what many will call impossible, he has managed to do, missing limbs notwithstanding because he has all he needs inside him. So when we think that what we need to thrive in our purpose, we already carry inside us, we also need to believe that we are surrounded by physical resources to help us fulfil it. One of those resources is the friends you keep. In the previous hot episode of Toxic Friendships, we looked at examples of how the wrong person in your life can sabotage your growth, for example. In the same vein, the right people can help you in phenomenal ways. Episode 11 was about the Value of a good friend and I shared three examples of friends that have been instrumental in where I stand today. So how can we attract the right people in our lives? Let’s look at why you must have good friends. First of all, your environment feeds your mind. You cannot underestimate the rate of absorption by the mind. The mind takes in information you are not even aware is present. If you are serious about personal growth and mindset changes, you have got to cull your environment. Know who is saying what and when they are most likely to say it. Curate Your Environment Years ago during the recession I was navigating a fledgling business and trying to stay positive in the process when I got a call; "Toks, you came to mind because I wanted to know how business was doing." "Well, every day we keep pushing forward. Anyway we are coming to the end of the recession so our only option is going up from here." "No, haven’t you heard? It’s about to get worse!" "Well even if it does, I don’t think my industry is badly affected." "Ah Toks, in fact they have said its your specific market that will be hurt the most." I started sweating. She was gaining ground. "I continued weakly, well, even if that’s the case, one day it will end." "Yes of course it will, but the question is will you survive until then? Do you have a plan B?" She won. I didn’t have a plan B. I didn't know what I'd do if the business folded. I had tried not to think about it but this woman brought it firmly to my attention. So the next time there was a crisis and she called, I sent her to my voicemail. I typically do this when in a vulnerable place and trying to stay grounded. You have to know what conversations to hold with whom and when. On the other hand, if you have friends that constantly remind you of your abilities you cannot see, you are in good company. Because while I believe we should make decisions and draw conclusions from our spirit, which is one with God, we sometimes reach for our emotions to affirm us. So if I don’t feel capable, I might not attempt the task. You need friends who can see your brilliance and describe it to you when you’re in the dark. That person doesn’t have to be a friend, it can be a mentor or a coach, your spouse or even a coworker. Good Friends are an Extra Pair of Eyes (and hands) Another reason you need good friends is they can point out obstacles on your path before you see them. They can be an extra pair of eyes for you. I have stories of when friends warned me about a danger I couldn’t see. Back in secondary school, my friend Ifeayinwa once whispered an examination tip to me. It was maths exam and our teacher famously made all the correct answers except one, C. It was multiple choice with options A to E. Of Course if you found all your answers were C, you’d be thrown off at how ridiculous it was. So my friend walked past me to get some paper and whispered to each of us- her friends, as she went past "numbers 1 to 7 C!" In boarding school, there were times my friends warned me about a plot by a senior or staff member to punish our class or hostel so we all had the opportunity to escape. Good Friends Help You Fight Good friends can help you fight when you are weak. Fighting can mean looking after you when you are ill or bereaved, speaking up for you in your absence or making you look good when you don’t. Be the Friend You want to Have Living from the inside out will lead you to connect with the right people. Last year I began to desire a different type of circle of friends. I have my ride or die chicks, and they are not going anywhere, but as I grew, I noticed a growing need to have people with specific qualities in my life. People who would pull me up. I had a picture of the type of friends I wanted, and unknowingly, I started to desire their attributes. This led to me working on myself to acquire these desired traits, and before you knew it, I was beginning to exhibit some of the qualities. I believe my new qualities attracted the right people to me. You have to be the friend you want to have. What's with noting is that by working on yourself, you are also becoming the type of friend people want in their life. It isn't enough to take good things, you must be willing to become desirable so others are blessed by you. I believe God has placed people on our path that are specific for our journey. There are people who only come into our lives for a season and that’s all they’re meant to be there for. Some of my closest friends are friends from my school days. There is something so effortless and childlike in our communication, even as adults. But I also have friends today that I met in adulthood, and I trust my life with them. So don’t crop out the possibility of having a close friend that you’ve only just met. One of the most famous friendships is between Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King. Oprah tells the story of when Gayle was visiting her, this was in her very early days, she found $482 in her coat pocket. She took it out and asked her friend, you want it? And Gayle refused. Ten years later Gayle recounted the story and said she could think of a million things she could have done with the money. Paid her utility bills, bought groceries, filled her tank with petrol, but she didn’t want to ask so Oprah wouldn’t think she wanted her money. That is called self-respect. To attract the right friends, you have to exhibit the qualities you want to see in your friends. You know what it's like when you meet someone for the first time, and by the end of the evening, you decide I never want to be friends with him or her or would like to hang out. We are constantly being watched in the same way we watch others and while one evening isn’t enough to decide to be besties, a lot can be revealed about a person through conversation. How to win Friends In his best-selling book, How to Win Friends and Influence People, one of Dale Carnegie’s tips is to respect people. Even if you don’t agree with their opinion, you don’t have to be rude or forceful about it. People are turned off when you try to be a know it all, denouncing their views and describing it as wrong. There is such a thing as agreeing to disagree. This doesn’t mean don’t have an opinion, rather we should have our opinion but not enforce it on others. The more time you spend working on your inside, the more qualities you’ll discover that you want to either lose or keep. I discovered only recently that I don’t have the patience for people who want to keep me in the past. I hadn’t spoken to this old friend for a few years and called to see how he was doing. During the conversation, he lectured me on changes I need to make in my life, and how I needed to step up in some areas. I’m sure he meant well. But he was speaking to a version of Toks that no longer existed. I was taken aback that my friend did not know me, and I felt disrespected by his comments although to be fair, he didn’t do or say anything he wouldn’t normally have said, In the three years since we last connected, I had grown. So it felt like he didn’t recognise my growth and was fixated on my weaknesses; any further conversation would have annoyed me so I hung up. Good Friends Grow With You I want to be with people who are passionate about growing and recognise growth when they see it. And he didn’t. This is a new desire because the same conversation wouldn’t have gone left if we’d had it a couple of years ago. This tells us that change can affect friendships. But it is important that you recognise the changes you are going through so you don’t drive good friends away, and you must also recognise and expect your friends’ growth, so they don’t walk away from you. I believe people will receive you in the way you present yourself to them. If you have insecurity issues and you’re looking for someone to validate your worth, you’ll attract a predator. One who preys on your vulnerability and lack of self-worth. So don’t look for a friend to fill a void in your life, or to make up for the areas you are weak in. Friendships should be based on mutual love and respect and authenticity. When you are in a friendship with someone who isn’t real, the years erodes the layers and eventually, you’ll be left with someone who doesn’t fit into the space you carved out for them. This means you should also practice authentic living. I define authenticity as the stripping away of embellishments so that the real you shows up. Your real self will recognise and become friends with their real self. There’ll be no weaving and diving, wondering what version of you to present each time you meet. Know Your Foundation, Know Your Values I don’t think friends need to have the same interests or be similar in the way they think. Those are relatively surface traits which do not necessarily form the foundation of who we are. What matters, are the values we hold. What are those make or break attributes that you will not compromise on? This does not mean you should only have friends that share the same values as you. But to know what you desire in a friend, you must know who you are and what’s important to you. The more we explore, the more we discover that to have good friends, one must know one’s self and live from the inside out.Here’s my assignment for you this week, take a values test, link below. Over the years, how have you made some of your most memorable friendships? Also, what's your number one value? Values Living Questionnaire How to Win Friends and Influence People

Never expected to be married or have children, Nick has four kids with his wife of eight years. "Life isn't always smooth. Life isn't always good. But, life overall is good." "We don't see the good that can come from broken pieces. We don't give any room for miracles. And when you don't get a miracle, you can still be a miracle for someone else." Nick has shared his life-giving message of hope to over 2 billion people. Australia's speaking industry was virtually nonexistent when Nick began his career. That + the worry that Nick would be influenced by other's opinions made his parents fearful. After two years, Nick's success + life-changing impact was apparent. "There is hope beyond the brokenness." "My joy is in my faith, family + friendship." Nick + I share how our children have learn their dads may not be like the other dads and how they've learned to bridge the gap through sharing that everyone has value. Looking forward, Nick is grateful + seeking balance. Learn more about Nick Vujicic here. Learn more about Nick Vujicic's ministry Life Without Limbs here. NICK VUJICIC'S LIVE INSPIRED 7 1.

Imagine getting through your busy day without hands or legs. Picture your life without the ability to walk, care for your basic needs, or even embrace those you love. Meet Nicholas Vujicic. Without any medical explanation or warning, Nick was born in 1982 in Melbourne, Australia, without arms and legs.
"People put their own limitations on you. I never thought I was limited." All of us are different, and Chassidy Young knew that from a young age. She did well in school. She competed in dance competitions. She was homecoming queen. Chassidy was also born with tetra-amelia or, simply put, lacking all four limbs. Where others might see obstacles, Chassidy sees opportunity and has used her "disability" as a springboard into a life of creative thinking, motivational speaking, and great fashion. She's thriving in a world not built for her, and says she wants other women to know they can feel beautiful in any body. You can find her on social media @chasing_chassidy Second Shot Sit-Downs is an in-depth look at the people who inspire us, from your friends at Second Shot! This interview series is meant to highlight the types of people we talk about on the show: the people who really embody that idea of taking a Second Shot at business, at relationships, at life.

How do you respond to those who believe some lives are just not worth living? In this bonus episode, Joni Eareckson Tada, Founder of Joni and Friends and a 51-year veteran of life in a wheelchair joins Nick Vujicic, Founder of Life Without Limbs, and Katherine Wolf, former model, young mother, and stroke survivor, to talk about the intrinsic value of every life. As sanctity of life is questioned for the elderly, those with catastrophic disabilities, people with psychiatric disorders, and more, these 3 ministry leaders, each with different abilities and disabilities, share that all life is valuable. Whether life is found in a womb or in a wheelchair, it has value because we are all made in the image of God! Joni and Friends was founded in 1979 by Joni Eareckson Tada who in a diving accident was left a quadriplegic at 17 years old. Ministry began as Tada, joined by friends around her kitchen table, responded to letters she received from people with disabilities in search of support. Over the past 40 years, the ministry has grown to serve thousands of people impacted by disability worldwide: Joni and Friends has delivered 150,000 wheelchairs and Bibles through Wheels for the World and provided Christian care to 63,000 special needs family members through Family Retreats. The organization also equips individuals and churches with disability ministry training and provides higher education courses through the Christian Institute on Disability.
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada and I just bet you know Nick Vujicic. Like, who does not know Nick, right? The leader of “Life Without Limbs”, he is the International Evangelist who has become so well-known for his passion in giving the gospel. Millions of people have heard Nick Vujicic speak and I am sure as many have responded to his invitation to come to Christ as Lord and Savior. Nick is known well because he was born without arms or legs. He has a small foot – and boy does he do a lot with that foot. And the fact that he lives without limbs gives him such authority when he speaks about the trustworthiness of Jesus Christ; how despite any limitation the Lord is always worthy of our confidence and obedience. In short, God brings such satisfaction, such joy, that it overrides the inconvenience of not even having arms or legs. God raised up Nick Vujicic to be a prophet to the younger generation; to millennials and kids born into the digital age. I say all this because this morning at 9 AM Pacific time (that’s 12 noon East Coast time) Nick and I will be on Facebook Live together. We have come together because this is Sanctity of Life week and both he and I are strong advocates of the sacredness of life. Nick may not have arms or legs, he may have to be carried up steep steps, but he is a beautiful image-bearer of God. Nick knows that he is made in the image of God. He is made as a moral human being who can choose between right and wrong. He is made to love, made to care and be compassionate. He is made to think and create and work and delight in every good thing that comes down from the father. In other words, Nick Vujicic is made to reflect God and giving glory. Oh, will Nick be doing exactly that this morning when we go live together on Facebook. We will be covering pretty interesting topics as well as celebrating the 40th anniversary of Joni and Friends. Nick may be sharing a few surprises as well. So we hope you will post your comments as we open our hearts. Also, on today’s Facebook Live, I will be inviting my good friend, Katherine Wolf to say a few words. If you are on the East coast and it’s not 12 noon yet; or if you are on the West coast and it’s almost 9 AM, visit my Facebook page and watch our live presentation. If right now you are hearing my voice after the fact, if it’s late in the day and our Facebook Live event has already transpired, that’s okay. You can still watch it on my Facebook page. We’ll have it up all day and when you watch it post our comments because I would love to hear your thoughts on sanctity of life. Also I would love to hear what you have to say about our 40th anniversary. That’s right. This month begins a year-long celebration of our four decades of ministry. Joni and Friends has been reaching people with disabilities for Christ all around the globe for 40 years and that’s a lot of people reached for Jesus. So, go on Facebook; watch my discussion with Nick and post a big “thumbs up” or “like it” or maybe “love it”, and best of all please share it with your way of celebrating Sanctity of Life this week. See you on Facebook Live, or get on line and watch the fun video of our discussion and then please share it will all your friends. By the way, I would love to hear what you are praying about or a favorite Bible verse that you are memorizing. Tell me about it. Just go to my radio page today at joniradio.org, or you can always write me at Joni and Friends, P.O. Box 3333, Agoura Hills, California 91376. If the Lord has answered some prayer of yours today, guess what, stop right after we are done here and tell Him “Thanks”.

Join us this week on Christian Devotions SPEAK UP! when host Scott McCausey discusses overcoming the most difficult obstacles with author of Life Without Limbs, Nick Vujicic. Imagine being born without arms. No arms to wrap around a friend; no hands to hold the ones you love; no fingers to experience touch; no way to lift or carry things. How much more difficult would life be if you were living without arms and hands? Or what about legs? Imagine if instead of no arms, you had no legs. No ability to dance, walk, run, or even stand. Now put both of those scenarios together… no arms and no legs. What would you do? How would that affect your everyday life? Meet Nick Vujicic, pronounced “Vooy-cheech.” Born in 1982 in Brisbane, Australia, without any medical explanation or warning, Nicholas Vujicic came into the world with neither arms nor legs. Now at 33 years of age, this limbless young man has accomplished more than most people accomplish in a lifetime. Nick recently made the massive move from Brisbane, Australia to California where he is the president of the international 501c3 non-profit organization, Life Without Limbs. Since his first speaking engagement back when he was 19, Nick has traveled around the world, sharing his story with millions of people, speaking to a range of different groups such as students, teachers, youth, businessmen and women, entrepreneurs, and church congregations of all sizes. He has also told his story and been interviewed on various televised programs worldwide. “If God can use a man without arms and legs to be His hands and feet, then He will certainly use any willing heart!”
