Ep. 100: The Miraculous Journey of Lulu Gribbin, a Survivor of a Shark Attack (with Guests Ellie and Ann Blair Gribbin)

Lulu Gribbin's survival story began on June 7, 2024. While diving for sand dollars with friends on Florida's Gulf Coast, she was attacked by a bull shark, severing her left hand and part of her right leg. After waking up from surgery, Lulu's first words were "I MADE IT" and this statement has set the tone for Lulu's miraculous journey of recovery, strength, and tenacity. Join Kari as she talks to this remarkable young lady about her story, her comeback, and her new Lulu Strong Foundation, created to support other amputees through research, technology, and prosthetics.

Ep. 96: 5 Prayers for a New School Year (with Mary Lauren Hudson)

Psalm 127:4 says that children are like arrows in the hands of a warrior. As parents, we shape our arrows and send them into the future. We decide where to aim.  For Christians, the goal is to launch Christ followers, children who know their purpose and will impact the future for Him. We can’t control, predict, or fix every challenge our children face, but we can pray to One who loves them more than we do and never leaves them. We can let God use our toughest seasons as parents to grow our faith and turn us into prayer warriors. Join us as we share 5 prayers to pray over this new school year.
