Love you Joni! Your such an inspiration. I pray for you every day. Thank you for all that you do! Can't wait to live with you in Heaven ❤️❤️✝️✝️ I would love a whole 30 min sermon on how we are supposed to die to self, I'm getting that a lot lately but I think I've taken to far and hard enjoying anything that brings me Joy. Thank you Joni.
Joni is a beautiful example of choices in the Journey of Life at this Temporary address ❤ God Bless you Joni & Team ❤ Thank you for all you do ❤ Everyone needs to checkout the STM opportunity experience the Family Retreat all over the U.S. Great opportunity to be on the Team ☆◇☆◇☆
Joni always looks beautiful. As beautiful as when I first saw her on TV on Christmas Day in 1980. I was so impressed and I’ve followed her wonderful ministry ever since. Thank you for blessing my life, Joni. 🙏😊💕

Re: question at 29:10 re: Joni's visceral experience (27:20) of Jesus' presence in her pain The key is: her pain/other impairments. Her answer, while it contained much good advice, I felt was likely to leave the hypothetical teenager still wondering, "Yeah, but, all my Bible memorizing and, yes, also conscientiously applying the Bible to my daily life is STILL NOT giving me what you, Joni, experience. So....???" Answer: "God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks to us in our conscience, but shouts in our pains ... ." C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain. We "walk by faith, not by sight." Feeling Christ's presence viscerally is a "sight" experience which God largely gives only in times of great anguish. Thus, Joni (amazingly -- I doubt whether I would.... certainly would not, thinking about it in theory; "No, thanks. I will wait to see Jesus in heaven.") would rather be paralyzed and enjoy Jesus viscerally now (and this is apart from her wonderful assertion at the end of her first book, Joni, that even if only one came to believe in Jesus as Savior because of her paralysis, her years in the wheelchair would be worth it) than to have never been paralyzed and never experienced the visceral presence of Jesus. Amazing. We who have not experienced this cannot really "get it." We must simply accept that it is true. Hope this comment helps anyone who found her answer to the question at about 29:10 to not be enough. And a final note of encouragement for all of us without Joni's suffering-honed, deep, love for Jesus: "Christians are not perfect -- just forgiven." Rejoice! :)
I am new to a power chair, I find it terrifying. How do I get used to ir? And have you ever been dumped,or dumped yourself?! You have no idea how you have changed my life. Thankyou.
Big Amen!
Joni, You are such a blessing" I am looking forward to meeting you, one day!
She’s amazing and keeps me inspired to walk closer to Jesus ✨
