Description: The "Never Chained" Talk Show with Nick Vujicic - Episode 105 features Nick Vujicic in conversation with Joni Eareckson Tada, a world-renowned author, radio host, disability advocate, and the founder of Joni and Friends. Joni repeats 10 words that changed her life. "God permits what He hates to accomplish what  He loves." In this interview, we dive into the joy and suffering of everyday life, including Joni's own story, and how Jesus is the answer to it all. Join us for an honest, real, and humorous look into how God meets us in our greatest pain and suffering and the joy that can be discovered through life as a disciple of Jesus Christ. We also discuss how the church can best serve those with disabilities and how we've learned to persevere through life's greatest challenges. You don't want to miss it! As a part of our 2022 Champions for the Brokenhearted campaign, Nick will interview world experts on a new topic each month. As they share powerful stories from their experiences working on the front lines, they highlight the ways each of us can get involved to protect our families and communities as champions. For the month of March, we are excited to share a special message of hope and encouragement for friends with disabilities. Tune in next week, March 9, 2022, when we will release a conversation with pro-surfer Bethany Hamilton about being unstoppable. 0:00 Introduction 2:32 Nick and Joni’s friendship 5:20 Joni’s story 5:18 I broke my neck in a diving accident when I was 17. 6:18 I am living like a hypocrite.

Jesus, would you do something in my life?" 7:39 I think it was their love that began to soften my heart. 7:51 Through months of suicidal depression.... 8:32 How does Jesus meet us in pain and depression? 10:14 My advice here: I would not resist the depression. I would move into it. 10:29 When my pain gets really hard. I wake up in the morning, and I think.... 10:37 And it is just at times overwhelming. But instead of resisting it, and instead of getting  anxious about it or fearful about it or angry about it, I walk into it. 11:58 I walk into that depression and talk back to it.  13:39 I'll fly away! 14:30 "In everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." 1 Thessalonians 5:18 14:55 How did you learn to thank God after your accident? 19:05 How could a good God allow this to happen? 23:32 God has changed me! 24:30 Joni’s encouragement 25:23 Praying for healing 27:25 The church’s role 30:56 How the church can serve those with disabilities 36:01 Dealing with depression 36:45 Joy and suffering 39:06 What are your favorite stories from your work? 43:08 Joni and Friends 44:17 The power of worship 49:57 Gospel hope 52:54 Prayer Visit Joni and Friends website here: joniandfriends.org --- Learn more about how to become a Christian. lifewithoutlimbs.org/resources/know-jesus Just accepted Jesus or want to know more about Him? lifewithoutlimbs.org/resources/know-jesus Have a prayer request?
