Nic Nienhuis' friends started calling her the "ambitious cripple," a term she loves, after seeing how vivaciously she lives life amidst severe pain and limitation. Nic is in her thirties and has had over 30 surgeries relating to her multiple diagnoses, some of which include anklosing spondylitis and RA. We are also stoked to have Nic on the podcast today because she is typically working on the other side of these episodes as our podcast editor! Nic shares her story vulnerably today, including talk about suicidal thoughts, an affair, and the restoration of her life through Jesus Christ. Check out the incredible resources she recommended below, and feel free to reach out to her through her email with questions or to tell her what her story meant to you.

Lore Ferguson Wilbert vulnerably shares parts of her doubts and questions through her journey, including an ectopic pregnancy, a current struggle she's facing, and her journey through miscarriages. Lore is the author of Handle with Care, a book on the ministry of touch. Touch is not talked about much in our healing journeys, and Lore shares today why this may be the case and how we can learn from how Jesus touched and was touched. This is an episode to listen with a notepad! I believe her wisdom is going to blow your socks off in a new way. Enjoy!

Sam Kavanagh was on a back-country ski trip when an avalanche struck. Losing his best friend in the avalanche, Sam was lucky to be alive. But when he looked down and saw the bone of his leg sticking through his pants, he knew he was in trouble. Following a massive search and rescue effort, Sam had his leg amputated. But his story didn't end there! Not only did he pick up cycling and become a US Paralympian, but he participates in all kinds of sports and goes on adventures with his family. Today, we hear the second installment of this conversation with Sam, where he shares about the baby steps in his recovery that got him from an amputation to freedom, and he also share about the grieving process.

Join us for part two of Cami and Gabe Latham's stories. Listen to episode 65 to hear the backstory of Gabe's accident and how that affected Cami and their family. Then listen to this episode to hear how God brought their healing journeys full circle. Disclosure: We talk about very serious topics in this episode, including self harm, abuse, suicide attempts, and demonic oppression. These are vital conversations for the Church and I am beyond grateful for the vulnerability the Lathams had in sharing these parts of their stories. Listen in! I believe God has something for you to hear in this episode today.

Cami and Gabe Latham are a sister and a brother who grew up in Brazil. Today, they take us on the first part of their journey (part two coming on Thursday!) through Gabe's accident, his near death experience (NDE), Cami's dream of the event before it happened, and how she felt the effects of her brother being the "miracle boy." The way these two's journeys are interwoven and how God heals both of them with such care is a testament to how much God sees us and loves us all. I cannot wait for you to get to know Cami and Gabe in this episode!
