Through stories of children with disabilities, personal experiences of grief and illness, and reflections on purpose, community, and service, they discuss how joy differs from happiness and why it can endure even amid suffering. Listen as they share what they've learned from families impacted by disability, the connection between joy and calling, and how giving ourselves to something larger than ourselves can transform both our lives and the lives of others.</p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://soundcloud.com/whalehawk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>For further information, please check out the following resources:</em></a></p><p><a href=\"https://kupenda.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Kupenda for the Children</em></a></p><p><a href=\"https://soundcloud.com/whalehawk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Introduction by: </em></a><a href=\"https://www.wbaltv.com/news-team/177f1093-c194-4ee7-853a-d25c18f4d3c8\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Tom Tasselmeyer</em></a></p><p><a href=\"https://soundcloud.com/whalehawk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Moderator: </em></a><a href=\"https://www.huntvalleychurch.org/sermons/previous-sermons/preacher/frank-boswell/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Frank Boswell</em></a></p><p><a href=\"https://soundcloud.com/whalehawk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Guests: </em></a><a href=\"https://kupenda.org/our-team/staff-members/#CynthiaBauer\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Cynthia Bauer</em></a><em>, </em><a href=\"https://kupenda.org/our-team/staff-members/#LeonardMbonani\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Leonard Mbonani</em></a></p><p><a href=\"https://soundcloud.com/whalehawk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Audio engineering: </em></a><a href=\"http://www.opposit.co/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Phillip Knowlton</em></a></p><p><a href=\"https://soundcloud.com/whalehawk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Music composed by and used with permission from: Jacob Sanders</em></a></p><p><br></p>","author_name":"Kupenda for the Children"}
