Joni Eareckson Tada: Sharing Hope Through Hardship Joni and Friends

Just as your body needs food and water, your soul also needs nourishment. Feed on the Word; drink in God’s presence through prayer. Only Jesus, the Bread of Life and Living Water, can satisfy the hunger and thirst of your soul.

On this National Day of Prayer, join Joni in asking God for mercy on our nation. Pray we would be a nation that safeguards life and protects the weak and vulnerable. Pray we would turn from our wicked ways and seek the Lord.

If you use a wheelchair, walker or cane, consider it a gift from God. It may be a gift you would not have chosen, but allow it to remind you that in your weakness, he is strong!

In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, Joni is sharing a story about her friend Emily and a very special teacher. Is there a great teacher in your life you can thank today?

Joni is celebrating 39 years of sharing hope on the radio! Follow her example, and share with others how God has blessed and encouraged you in the midst of hardship. Don’t keep it to yourself! Testify to his goodness and grace in your life.

It is not our natural tendency to slow down and appreciate what God is doing right now. We like to know what’s coming next! But contentment comes as we live life one day at a time – keeping in step with the Spirit and trusting that God knows the future.
