Description: All of us know someone who is hearing, visually, or mentally impaired, or physically disabled. And we also know people who suffer from invisible disabilities that can be just as devastating. How can we help? How can we reach out to these people and encourage them emotionally and spiritually as well as physically? Writing from her own experience as a person with a disability and drawing on the experiences of listeners to her radio broadcast, "Joni and Friends", Joni offers thoughtful advice for putting our willing hearts and hands to work. She draws on her knowledge of the Bible to show how Jesus related to physically or mentally impaired people, using him as an example of how we can help those who feel limited by their bodies or circumstances. She explains how we can build vital friendships with people who keenly feel their handicaps -- friendships that not only brighten their lives but transform ours as well.
