The Happy Hour With Jamie Ivey: Happy newly-weds Laura and Martin thought they had their whole lives filled with adventure and dreams ahead of them, when suddenly the news of a brain-tumor turned their life upside down. With Martin’s loss of short term memory, loss of partial eyesight, and other complications, the fairytale life they dreamed of was no longer possible. On today’s show Laura Story shares with us the unique challenges their family faces with Martin’s limitations, what the Lord has taught her through brokenness, and how joy and intimacy has been found through the life they never imagined.
Laura Story is a wife, mother, songwriter, worship leader, author, artist, and Bible teacher. Her songs-which have won Grammys, Billboard Music Awards, and Dove Awards-include “Blessings,” and Chris Tomlin’s “Indescribable.” She is the author of several bestselling books and Bible studies including When God Doesn’t Fix It and So Long Normal. Laura has a master of theological studies and a doctorate in worship studies, and has served as a worship leader at Perimeter Church in Atlanta since 2005.
