Joni And Friends Ministry Podcast

When disability strikes, it can be easy for someone to wonder, Why me? What’s the purpose of my disability? At 8 years old, Kristin Hamer received the diagnosis of a genetic eye disease. And as her sight grew progressively worse, she did her best to hide her loss of vision; she didn’t want to accept it. But when her visual impairment reached the point that she was no longer able to be self-sufficient, Kristin had to confront her disability head on. She had to learn how to depend on others and God.  Today on the podcast, Kristin shares how she came to terms with her challenges. Hear how she found contentment with her disability and how  that brought her to a place of being able to minister to others with disabilities all over the world.
