A Disabled Faith Recovers

“To be quite honest, I felt like God betrayed us. We just stepped off the mission field and committed ourselves to full-time ministry, and this is what we got?”

When Diane Dokko Kim learned that her two-year-old son was autistic, she was gutted and cried out, “If you’re a good God, how could you let this happen? Why us? Why our child? Is this how you’re going to treat us? How are you going to fix this? And if not, how am I going to trust you again?” 

Diane observes now she was hit with two diagnoses: her son’s and then her own disabled spirit. For the next five years she wrestled with God, searching the Bible for meaning in her devastating circumstance. One of the results was a phenomenal book to inspire any parent, Unbroken Faith: Spiritual Recovery for the Special-Needs Parent.  Tune into our podcast interview with Diane to hear about Diane’s journey and her experience of how God answered her.
