Joni And Friends Ministry Podcast

When Joshua and Nicole Fast became pregnant with their son Malakai, they were thrilled to be growing their family. But when Malakai was born prematurely and diagnosed with myotonic dystrophy and cerebral palsy, they struggled to understand what life would look like for their son and their family. “What are we going to do?” Today on the podcast, Crystal is talking with Joshua about the joy that Malakai has brought to their family and how their struggles have taught the Fasts lessons that couldn’t be learned any other way. Hear how their unique journey with disability has deepened their spiritual life, illuminated the need for more special needs support within the church, and inspired them to help other families in similar circumstances. Learn about Priceless Youth MinistryQuestions or comments?
