Joni Eareckson Tada joins Alisa Childers on our first podcast of 2024. A diving accident left her quadriplegic at a young age. Yet through it all God has been faithful. After two years of struggling through depression and rehabilitation, she emerged with new skills and a fresh determination to help others in similar situations.
