Today marks 58 years since Joni Eareckson Tada’s diving accident—what the world saw as a tragedy, God used to launch a worldwide ministry.

Oh friends, my heart truly breaks for those with disabilities who didn't have the help they needed to escape the Los Angeles wildfires in time.

Looking back on 57 years spent in a wheelchair, I've seen how my perception of wheelchairs has changed since my diving accident. From at one point avoiding them to now embracing the freedom and dignity they offer, my journey from reluctance to gratitude has taught me the true value of mobility. Which is why I am eager to encourage you, friend, to consider supporting your local Joni and Friends office during our May Match giving opportunity!

Today, 55 years after I made that dive into shallow water, snapping my neck and totally derailing plans for my future, I now know why God allowed it. I know for certain. That reason is found in Genesis 50:20 where it says, “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.” In the beginning of my years of paralysis, when I was struggling with why God allowed my accident. I felt confined and enslaved. Over time, those feelings of

When I reflect back on the last 40 years of ministry I am reminded of a powerful encounter I had with a paraplegic who was struggling with the permanency of his disability. This was when the fog of my depression was dissipating as God’s goodness and sovereignty began to dawn in my heart. Rolling up to the man sitting in his chair, I smiled and introduced myself, asking "What's your name?" His response stunned me to my core when his mumbled answer revealed deep hopelessness and despair. It was li

When a diving accident left me a quadriplegic so many years ago, I learned to paint by holding the brushes in my mouth.

My heart breaks for 14-year-old David and his family. This young man went in for a routine knee surgery and tragically went home with brain damage after the anesthesia did not take correctly. He lost mobility and his ability to speak⁠. Now David can only communicate through eye movements. But I am so thankful that our Joni and Friends Wheels for the World team custom-fit David in a specialized wheelchair that his parents couldn't afford on their own. His family also met with a local pastor who s
