Hello Brave Friends! This is story episode #182, about what can happen when parents presume competence in their non-verbal, autistic son. 

Today we hear from Jason Hague about his experience accepting his autistic son Jack’s presumed intellectual disability, making peace with it, and then seeing a documentary that changed everything.

Welcome to today's story episode: How Spelling Revealed a Non-Verbal Teen’s Brilliance.

Jason Hague has been telling his story of faith, fatherhood, and autism on his blog for years and years now. He also has a fabulous book called “Aching Joy: Following God through the Land of Unanswered Prayer” which chronicles his own spiritual and emotional journey with his son Jack and the link to find it can be found below.
