This is the story of Ron and Bev Huckabee from Texas. It was a discouraged Bev who had emailed Joni, desperately asking for help and explaining that her husband, a former pastor, had sunk into depression after he broke his neck, battled cancer, and wrestled constant infections. Ron had decided to just give up. But hope was on the way! Ron went from a depressed, bedridden quadriplegic, refusing to talk to anyone... to now serving as the National Prayer Coordinator for Marketplace Ministries in Dallas, Texas. What changed him? In this episode find out why hope is not only a good thing; it's the best of things.
