Painting for God's Pleasure

May 16, 2022    Joni Eareckson Tada

Over 40 years ago, artist Joni Eareckson Tada took a reckless dive that left her paralyzed in a wheelchair. Feeling abandoned by God, depression set in. But despair became satisfaction as God made beauty from ashes. Joni discovered that her talent for art came not from her hands, but from within. And she began painting with her mouth. With fresh joy and purpose, Joni found her art to be a new form of self-expression and worship to God. Watch as Joni shares how God has used her wheelchair as the perfect frame to showcase His gospel through her life and art.
