At Joni and Friends, our hearts are heavy for those impacted by the recent earthquake in Myanmar and its aftershocks, particularly for individuals with disability who often face additional hardships in times of disaster. Our partners in Thailand were also affected, so our prayers are with them during this difficult time.

Will you join us in praying for God's comfort and mercy in the affected region? We pray this crisis draws many people to the Lord, and each person finds his peace and hope in the midst of their suffering.

10 words that will transform your theology of suffering: 👇

"God permits what he hates to accomplish what he loves."

Steve Estes first shared these words with Joni Eareckson Tada at her family’s kitchen table over 50 years ago, when they were both still teenagers. When Joni had just become a quadriplegic, those 10 simple words radically transformed her understanding of God’s sovereignty and the purpose of her suffering.

After all, God permitted the gruesome death of his own Son Jesus to accomplish what he loved—salvation for a world of lost sinners. And for Joni he permitted her to break her neck to accomplish something of infinite worth—Christ in her, the hope of glory.

Today Joni is grateful for her quadriplegia. What she thought was the ruin of her life was actually the beginning of God's greatest use for her life. Through her diving accident, God launched Joni and Friends to reach thousands of people who live with disability with his good news. đź’™

Because God is sovereign, there is purpose in every trial.

What is the "new thing" God talks about in Isaiah 43:19? 👇

It’s the way of salvation made through his Son, Jesus Christ! 💙

At Joni and Friends, we aim to help people find a way through the hardships of disability with the salvation message of Jesus! We don’t just provide wheelchairs or host retreats—we share about the deeper healing found in Christ alone.

So, when we talk about the "new things" in Isaiah 43:19, we’re not referring to our new programs or service locations—we’re talking about the Gospel message being shared through these programs! And we can't wait for another year overflowing with amazing, Gospel-centered ministry. 🙌

Here's a message from Joni about this timeless Christmas hymn: ✨ 🎄

"One of the things I love best about the Christmas season is the Christmas hymns. It doesn’t matter if you’re an alto or a soprano, if you can actually hold a melody or are tone-deaf, this is the season for singing. And aren’t you glad the words to most Christmas carols are so Christ-centered? So full of Gospel truth?

1 Corinthians 14:15-16 tells us to not only sing with our spirit, it says, '…I will also sing with my mind.' In other words, think on the beauty of each word, the timeless truth and doctrine in each carol. Because when you do that, you’ll agree that singing Christmas carols can be a wonderful way to share the good news of God with us, Immanuel come to earth to be our Savior. 

So this season, when you find yourself humming a carol in an elevator or whistling along in the mall, when you find yourself singing with a few friends these beautiful old hymns, do it the 1 Corinthians 14 way – sing with your mind… think what you’re whistling about… ponder the words as you hum along… sing with your mind and rejoice over the Gospel truth given."

Christmas is a time to not only reflect on the joy of Christ's first coming, but also to eagerly await his return. 🤍

When Christ comes back, the brokenness of this world will be fully restored—there will be no more suffering, death, or sorrow. ✨

If you're in Christ, let this be a reminder not only to look forward to his return, but also to get busy in the meantime! We have prayers to offer, people to share the Gospel with, hurting ones to comfort, sin to confront, and so much more.

If you're not in Christ, know that his return is certain. His first coming was one of humility and sacrifice—born as a baby, living a sinless life, and dying on the cross for our sins. His second will be one of glory and judgment, as he defeats evil and establishes his eternal kingdom. Before that day comes, we invite you to repent and believe in him.

Christ's work is fully sufficient—that’s the true hope of Christmas! May we all be encouraged by the hope of his glorious return.🎄
