This weekend in California, Joni Eareckson Tada has invited friends to join her in a celebration of her 75th birthday. A quadriplegic herself, Joni is the Founder of Joni and Friends which since 1979 has committed to reaching and serving people with disabilities with practical help and the saving love of Jesus.

As an author, speaker, and artist, Joni is loved the world over for her compassion for those with disabilities. Her own experience of living with pain, coupled with a deep relationship with God and His Word, gives Joni a platform to speak into the lives of hurting people everywhere.

This personal FIRST PERSON interview took place in 2020 during the annual National Religious Broadcasters convention in Nashville and is being released again on her 75 birthday. Happy Birthday, Joni!

NEXT WEEK:  Andrew Montonera, Biographer of martyrs John and Betty Stam
