Marriage And Disability
It’s
Not About Us
Joni
and Friends
“No
matter how horribly depressing and difficult things were, we clung to God’s
grace moment-by-moment.” - Joni Eareckson Tada
Marriage
and disability is no easy union.
Approximately
90% of marriages affected by disability end in divorce, but after more
than 30 years of marriage, Joni and Ken are breaking the odds.
But that
doesn’t mean Joni and Ken have not faced their fair share of troubles.
When
Zondervan Publishing wanted Joni and Ken to write a book together and to call
it Joni & Ken: An Untold Love Story, it was the first time Joni
and Ken had ever written something together.
Immediately
they were motivated to share how God used their struggles against breast
cancer, quadriplegia, depression, and chronic pain to deepen their intimacy
with Him and with each other.
“Wedding
vows are under a vicious attack.”
When
asked “Why do you want to write this book?”
Joni and Ken simply said: wedding vows are under a vicious attack
today, and we want to help married couples grasp the sufficiency of
Christ “in sickness and in health” and “for better or
for worse.”
Joni
& Ken: An Untold Love Story offers
readers a rare and candid account of a marriage journey through quadriplegia,
depression, pain, and cancer.
The book
is a testimony to all the grace and faithfulness found in God alone.
“Look, this is a book for guys; it’s a challenge to men to step up to
the plate and make good on their vows.” -
Ken Tada
