Our new book may be due for release late March/early April, but Ken and I are already sharing the "untold" part of our story in a few key interviews. This one in the Christian Examiner just came out and I wanted to pass it on to you. The other day I heard my husband tell one interviewer, "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." What can I say, I just had to smile – a comment like that makes all those "difficult" years worth it!

I can't wait to buy your book, Ken and Joni, and read it to my dad. Thank you for letting this untold story be told. I know that God will use this book for years to come, in thousands of lives. Thank you for writing it.

Ken and Joni, I just ordered your book. My wife and I are looking forward to reading it. This is a timely subject. The Lord has been prompting me, through various means, that I need to do a much better job of treating my wife with the love, honor and respect that she deserves and that the Lord has commanded me to show her. It is time for us men to be the servant leaders in our homes that the Lord has made us to be. May this book encourage many to do so. Thank you for sharing your story!

You two are so precious! Ken...Joni entered the world of disability by accident, you chose to enter it when you became her kindred spirit...that's the power of love. As iron sharpens iron, through the delights, the drudgery and the just plain horrific challenges you've faced together, it is a wonderful thing to behold the LOVE you're fashioning together with the Spirit! Thanks for the transparency and willingness to share "behind the scenes." <3

Joni: You have been my hero for 34 years. I was in bed 24/7 with two ruptured disks in my back. Needless to say, I was feeling sorry for myself. Then I got a copy of your book "Joni." Wow. That book changed the way I looked at things. I am a Christian, and your life in Christ has been a blessing to me. I have many of your books. I am anxiously awaiting this new book. I also had breast cancer in 1997; and Guillian-Barre' in 2000. Was in wheelchair for short period of time due to paralysis from the chest, down. Was on ventilator for 8 days because the it got my lungs. God was wonderful to me. Touched my body. There are many miracles in my life, too. I prayed for and followed you through your breast cancer. May God continue to bless you and Ken as you serve Him, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Would love to meet you in person. I do read your blogs, etc. For sure, someday we will meet in Heaven!
