Jeff Rose: Diagnosed at 18 with a hereditary disease called Friedreich’s Ataxia, my dream of becoming a professional baseball player was shattered. Responding negatively to the diagnosis, I turned to drugs and alcohol, dropped out of college, became depressed and suicidal. For three years I lived a very destructive lifestyle, as the disease ruled me. I was born again at 21. I began to read God’s Word and find out that I had a new identity in Christ. I stopped allowing the limitations of the disease rule my attitude and behavior.. Now I respond proactively with the Word and am free to follow my heart! By the grace of God, I went back to college and acquired 2 Bachelor Degrees and a 2-yr certificate at a bible college. When you learn to respond to circumstances with the Word of God, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!
