Have you ever found yourself in a situation that you could have never seen coming? This week's episode features two of our great friends, Katherine and Jay Wolf. The Wolf's share with us an inspiring story that completely changed the trajectory of their lives. Katherine and Jay remind us we all have wheelchairs - things that could hinder us and hold us back- that, if we allowed, could keep us from experiencing true joy and fulfilled lives. However, it is in these times of growth where we can actually come alive and  begin to experience freedom like never before. These freedoms often times allow us to step into and begin seeing the full potential of the uniquely designed and wonderfully made children that God has created us to be. To buy The Wolf's NEW book, Suffer Strong: How to Survive Anything by Redefining Everything, click HERE!To purchase Hope Heals: A True Story of Overwhelming Loss and an Overcoming Love, click HERE.To purchase Rhythms of Renewal: Trading Stress and Anxiety for a Life of Peace and Purpose, click HERE.To download Rebekah's free resource, "30 Verses on Anxiety," click HERE.Thank you to our wonderful sponsor, PrepDish!
