A Conversation With Ken Tada

Today's show featured special guest: Ken Tada.  

Married to Joni Eareckson-Tada for 32 years, Ken understands the role of caregiver in ways that few do.  As "...two veteran caregivers with 60+ years of caregiving between them lean on their swords at the edge of the battle for a few moments," Ken and I share from our journey of trusting God with the brutal realities of being husbands through decades long disability and medical nightmares.

A special Valentine's Day episode for couple living with a disability ...and for couples struggling with other issues that need to hear from two men who've plumbed deep into God's faithfulness ...and found it greater than they imagined.

We love providing all this for free, but we need your help.  At Standing With Hope, we point to Christ while providing artificial limbs.  Please consider becoming a regular supporter of this work.
