Hi, I'm Lashonda Hirsch from Kyiv Oblast Ukraine.

I'm a virtual bookkeeper for small businesses. I love listening to Compelled. It reminds me how amazing God is.

The God I see working and performing miracles among the people of this country is doing the same in the lives of his children an ocean away.

Enjoy today's episode.

It was a different mindset that we had.

We were like, yes, we are sick, but we're not going to let that, we're not going to let that own us.

We're not going to let that keep us, you know, down.

We're going to literally walk by faith.

I'm Paul Hastings, and you're listening to Season 3 of Compelled, a podcast with unique stories from the kingdom of God told by the people compelled to live for him.

This is our third to last episode of the season.

And whether you've been listening to us the whole time or this is your first episode, we're glad you're here.

In our last episode, we heard from Laura Perry and her mother Francine.

As a young woman, Laura rejected God and hated her own body.

She thought that she would find answers by transgendering herself into a man.

But after living as a transgender man for almost 10 years, she realized that the creator of the universe had a far greater plan for her life.

You can hear that story by tuning into episode 37 with Laura and Francine Perry.

Today, our guests are Josh and Amy Glasscock.

As a child, Josh was diagnosed with a rare genetic disease called cystic fibrosis, which has

no cure and always causes death in its victims. But instead of shutting down and resigning

himself to a defeated existence doomed to die, Josh and his wife

Amy believe that God has called them to live a full and abundant life. And as you will soon hear,

they have. Their story coming up right after word from our sponsors.
