Unwritten

Surprise on a Snowy Day


Listen Later

In this episode of Unwritten, Trevor sits down with John Michael Lucido to talk about how life-altering news about their unborn child led to a profound encounter with the Holy Spirit.

Whether you're someone who has received news that stirred your life in an unexpected way, or just curious about the movement of the Holy Spirit in the world today, this conversation will provide an important truth about how God often moves outside of our plans and gives us strength for the unexpected journeys.

What You’ll Hear:

  • John Michael recounts the tense moment in the high-risk fetal care unit at KU Medical Center in Kansas City when he and his wife, Emily, learned their six-month-old unborn child would have Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome).
  • The question that weighed on John Michael—"Do I have what it takes?"—was answered by a moment of clarity from the Holy Spirit, who spoke with confidence in his heart, saying: "you don't have what it takes but I do and I'll be with you in every step of the journey".
  • The decision to name their son, born February 15th, 2021, Judah Michael (Judah meaning "Praise be to God" in Hebrew), reflecting their commitment that the world should look at their son and say, "Praise be to God," rather than viewing disability as a burden or hardship.
