This is a story of baby steps that led to accomplishing big goals all for the glory of God. Jake Thibeault had dreams of playing hockey in college. He had fallen in love with the sport as a little child. But tragedy struck and determination set in! This paraylzed 18-year-old walks at his high school graduation in spite of being paralyzed at the waist down from a hockey accident. 

Jake doesn’t remember much when he woke up in the hospital except to tell his parents he would walk again. And more specifically, he was determined to walk at his graduation. His parents believed that time heals all wounds but how could time heal something like this? In the beginning of learning how to live in a wheelchair his parents wondered how their precious son would walk at graduation when he couldn’t even sit up on his own, or even feed himself. 

After nine long months of physical therapy this courageous man took 30 steps. The more Jake worked through rehabilitation, the more determined he became. As Jake thought about his goal, the harder he worked. He went above and beyond in each of his therapy sessions because he wanted to put everyone’s doubt to rest. 

Because of his determination, courage, hope, and a whole lot of faith in God, Jake and his parents experienced the sweet taste of victory when Jake walked at his graduation. In this inspiring video, you will want to cheer and praise God as you witness Jake walk across the stage to get his diploma. Nine months of hard work equated into 30 steps. His fellow classmates, family, and the school community went wild. 

If we all could have a lion’s heart like this kid, I think we would see mountain’s move. We hope his story inspires you to have faith that no matter the odds, or how big the mountain is in front of you, God will be the author and perfecter of your story. And like Jake’s story, God isn’t done writing it yet. All it takes is one step at a time. 

Matthew 17:20 “Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Ever heard of a perfect impersonation of Simon Cowell singing You Will Be Found or how about Kermit The Frog singing Tiny Dancer? The Brown brothers with autism win the judges over with epic impressions and it doesn’t stop there. They received a standing ovation and all four judges sent them on to the next round in America’s Got Talent. 

Okay, so these guys can do impersonations but they can also sing and are musically gifted as well. What’s even more amazing is how they explain what it means to be high functioning as an austic person. For some on the spectrum, it simply means they have a hard time understanding or reading social situations and interactions. Despite being on the spectrum, Gabriel and Nate Brown blew the judges away with their talent. 

The brothers said not only was it nerve racking enough to be on stage and on TV but also because they weren’t sure which one of the 576 variations of impressions and songs they would be performing. They mixed up the cards and passed them onto the judges. What happened next was blessedly pure, raw, and fun talent! Who wouldn’t want to hear a perfect rendition of Tears Of Jupiter and then hear it as SpongeBob?

The duo had only hoped to win over the judges. Instead they won over the hearts of everyone on and off the America’s Got Talent show. Gabriel and Nate are living proof that no matter how each of us are created, we are designed with God’s Glory in mind. They not only embraced their autism, they blew past the barriers and exceeded way beyond anyone’s expectations. We hope this video that is going viral makes your day and puts a smile on your face.

To know and attain the Will Of God is the highest knowledge. Listen to this week's Inspirational Thought from Bishop Johnny Cunningham.

Soon after joining the Seventh-day Adventist Church in 1988, my wife and I were at a Christian book store looking to replace a lot of my secular music with music that would draw me closer to God. CDs were all the rage and they were selling all their vinyl no one wanted at literally 10% of face value. We bought a whole bunch of music. This particular album was my favourite. I have tried to find these guys on the internet over the years and never could. I made this video, a collection of various still frame memes I've created for social media over the last few years, as a tribute to them.

All the quotes are either NKJV Bible verses, Ellen White book references or a few I made up myself. Most of the pics are mine but a few are from Pexels. One mountain scene comes from Arthur Murray, whom I thank. Thanks as well to my wife for this idea!

Elvis may not still be alive, but one Texas singer is called the “Elvis of Country” after his original “America’s Got Talent” audition. His name is Drake Milligan, and his future is looking bright!

Drake, who is from Fort Worth, shares a bit of background with viewers. Drake describes a typical country upbringing. His dad runs a scrap yard, and his mom is a veterinarian. He grew up fishing and hunting, but his life changed when he was 7 years old and dining out with his family.

An Elvis impersonator performed at the restaurant that evening, and Drake was fascinated. He began impersonating Elvis at that young age, dressing as Elvis did and singing his songs. When Drake got older and sang his own songs one night on stage, he realized that he could create his own style—one that was uniquely his with the influences of Elvis that he appreciates so much. 

Simon and Drake discuss Drake’s current status as a singer. Drake is based out of Nashville, recording some of his own songs and touring with the band that is with him on stage at “AGT.” He hopes that “AGT” will provide the visibility to really launch his career, likening “AGT” to “The Ed Sullivan Show” and its impact on the careers of Elvis and The Beatles.  

Watch as he sings “Sounds Like Something I’d Do.” It is a clever and fun song, and it is all his. But, Drake definitely borrows a few bits from “The King of Rock and Roll.” 

Just before starting, he says “Thank you very much,” which certainly reminds us of Elvis. His hair is dark and has a wave in it—a modern version of Elvis’s pompadour. At 4:03, Drake shakes his shoulders just like his idol used to do. Then, he goes into a dance at 4:16 that looks quite like the one that Lisa Marie’s daddy did so well! 

Drake is backed by four musicians that have lots of personality, too. Notice that the fiddle player looks a bit like Matt Damon, and he is very entertaining to watch! 

It’s a rousing and rascally song, and, after it ends, Howie speaks first to say that he thinks both the song and Drake are going to be hits! Sofia thinks America is going to go crazy for Drake, just as the girls in the audience are at that moment!

Drake gets four yeses, and he is moving on. Elvis died nearly 45 years ago. Drake, now 23 years old, is generations beyond Mr. Pressley. But, it’s interesting to see how Drake was so impressed by Elvis, and we’re betting that Drake will do some major impressing himself one day soon!

“Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.” 1 Timothy 4:12

This adorable uncle and niece duo wins over Simon with their performance of “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough,” and wow the entire audience with their cuteness quotient! 

Meet Joseph B. Clarke, better known as Jojo, and his pint-sized 14-year-old niece, Bri’Anna Harper. Together these two have something that, according to Simon, is the “definition of joy and magic.” We think you’ll agree!

As the two meet the judges, it is clear that Jojo is a familiar face. This isn’t his first time in front of the “America’s Got Talent” panel; Jojo actually competed in Season 15 of “AGT.” He was then with a gospel vocal trio called RESOUND, eliminated in the Quarterfinals.

Simon asks Jojo what the key thing was that he learned through his prior experience on “AGT,” and Jojo shares that he learned, most of all, to never give up. That answer works for Simon and Heidi. Jojo says that he’s tried to teach that to his niece, because “she’s phenomenal.” Bri gives her uncle an appreciative embrace.

When Simon asks Bri what her dream is and how she’d spend her winnings, she says she wants to make people smile and give to charity. That answer works for everybody! This little lady has got a megawatt smile herself! The two haven’t even started singing, and the judges are in love!  

As they prepare to begin, Jojo asks Bri if she’s ready, and he assures her that she is. Jojo is not only a singer, producer, composer, and arranger—he’s also a vocal coach! Bri is just one of the hundreds of students her uncle has worked with since he founded Clarke Vocal Coaching in 2013. A gifted artist himself, he wants to help other young singers to realize their musical talents, too.

Bri’s Mom, Eboni, stands watching with “AGT” host, Terry Crews. She takes a deep breath in and lets it out, her hands folded in front of her face. But, this isn’t the first time she’s watched her baby girl perform. Bri shared a song on social media in 2018, and that performance went viral, leading to appearances on “The Ellen Degeneres Show” and “The VIEW,” among others. Bri was in 6th grade at the time!

When they start channeling Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell, it is pure fun! Jojo and Bri have the energy and the moves, the synergy and the notes! They deliver goosebumps and good feels! Soon, Simon’s eyes fly open when Bri belts out a big one, Howie’s hand is on top of his head in surprise, and Terry and Eboni are in full-blown dance mode by the chorus!  

The audition ends with a standing ovation, hugs and high-fives, and four resounding yesses! Simon says that theirs is among his favorite auditions thus far. High praise! 

Jojo and Bri demonstrate humility as they excitedly thank the judges, and their social media posts illustrate their gratefulness to God. While the judges are praising them, they are praising and thanking Him!

“For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.” 2 Corinthians 4:6

This is a video where dreams come true. In this clip, we see an 18-year-old Australian who travels to America alone to pursue dancing.

At the start of this video Max Ostler shares that he has come to America by himself at the young age of 18 to dance in an audition on America’s Got Talent. As he shares that he is dancing, the crowd cheers. 

He is asked how long he has danced. Max shares that he has trained for ten years in a studio but loved dancing since he was little. His dream is to be a choreographer and dancer. 

Max begins to dance, he starts out with intensity and very unique moves. He is smooth but precise in his moves. He does amazing motions and almost slow-motion falls gracefully to the music’s lyrics. 

Max pulls out some outrageous acrobatics, spinning upside down, sliding sideways on his head, and doing a front flip forward roll. Max does his dance with such passion and feeling. He is a natural performer. The crowd goes wild after his performance. 

Max shares that he has fought thoughts that he is not that good but he remembers he loves it. The judges tell him that it was incredible and how proud his parents must be. Max gets all four yeses from the judges.

The way that Max developed his skill and shared his gifts with the world reminds us that God has also gifted us too. Whatever those passions and abilities, we are to give our best for the glory of God. He can use our talents to bless others and wow them!

"For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians 2:10

You never know when unexpected talent might show up. In this video, a choir of NFL players scores a touchdown with their 'Lean On Me' AGT audition.

At the start of the video, we see an interview with the team. We hear the various teams that these young men have played for in pro football. There is a full range of teams. 

One player shares that they love playing football, however, they each have a childlike dream to sing on a big stage. They call themselves the Players Choir. They joke that they were rivals and now they are teammates. 

When sharing their story, one choir member shares that in 2004 they participated in the “Celebration of Gospel,” which happens at every Superbowl. 

He credited that Patti LaBelle asked them to sing and it revealed that they had talent. They now go sing as a choir for St. Jude and the American Cancer Society. They desire to spread light and joy. 

As the team gets into position, they begin the song and the team is soulful and excitedly dances while they sing. They have fantastic runs and harmonies. They do an incredible performance which gets a positive response from the crowd. 

The audience cheers when they are finished. Then, they are asked to sing the chorus again acapella. Removing the soundtrack made this group shine even more. The judges stand in ovation. 

They rave about how they are using their platform for charity, they are good singers, and their energy and story are amazing. This story of teamwork and the foundation of gospel music makes this group all the more exciting to watch. 

They are giving their all, just like we are called to give our best to the glory of God.

"Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established." Proverbs 6:3

It is always nice to see brothers having fun together. In this video, the dancing brothers spread joy with roller-skating routines.

 

One of the best activities to get your mind off things and have fun is roller skating. At the start of this video, Marcus and Michael Griffin are on the roller rink clapping and grooving under the disco ball. 

 

One brother shares how stepping onto the rink makes him feel like he is in another place. He expresses how his mind is cleared from hard times and focused on the joy of the moment. As various clips appear of the brothers skating,  you witness them do some pretty amazing tricks, including one jumping over the other while they are skating.

 

The other brother starts sharing about all of the messages he gets from people. The brothers are inspiring others to get back to skating. The men credit their mother for bringing the gift of skating into their lives. 

 

When she was a girl, her mom took her to the rink and so when she became a mom, she took her boys. This is a generational family activity. These brothers want to bring joy and happiness to whoever views their skate videos. 

 

I love that these brothers did not give up on their passion. Sometimes it is easy when life gets busy to ‘outgrow’ some of the things we enjoyed when we were young. However, these two are proving to the world through their videos that we’re never too old for fun. 

 

Skating is a great activity for many ages and it is something wonderful to do with family and friends. Watching these brothers dance on the rink reminds us of the joy in using our bodies and our hobbies to glorify God and worship Him.

“In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.’” Matthew 5:16

David said about him: "'I saw the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

Jesus Christ promised it Matthew 5:8
Blessed are the pure in heart,? for they will see God.

In this heart-racing camera footage, a mother stops her car in the middle of traffic and begs the sheriff’s deputy to save her choking child. The deputy is now being hailed as a hero. 

Daniella Armijo was running errands with her little girl when she noticed that her four-year-old daughter had stopped breathing. She was trapped at a red light and was desperate to save her little girl. But the Lord intervened in the most incredible way. God placed Deputy K. Rose right behind Daniella at the red light because he is trained in CPR and God knew the Deputy could help save the little girl’s life. 

When Daniella spots the officer, she jumps out of her car and then carries her little girl to the officer’s car. She tells him she isn’t breathing, and the Deputy immediately starts CPR and calls for backup. Because of the Deputy’s quick actions and staying calm under pressure, he was able to get the little girl to start breathing again before the ambulance arrived. 

It must have been so scary for Daniella and the Deputy when this sweet little girl wasn’t breathing, but we can thank God for putting Deputy K. Rose in the right place at the right time. He is definitely a hero–more like an angel in disguise. 

After the footage of the heart-stopping incident was posted online, the story went viral with almost 600,000 views. It was incredible to watch this Deputy save this little girl’s life. We can keep this Deputy in our prayers and ask God to continue to protect, bless, and guide those who put their lives on the line to protect and serve their communities.

Micah 6:8 “The Lord God has told us what is right and what he demands: “See that justice is done, let mercy be your first concern, and humbly obey your God.”

When she was ten, she used all of her birthday money to buy pet food for seniors in need, and now it’s become Sonya’s business as a 15-year-old. This kind teen volunteers to help senior citizens get the food they need. Sonya learned that seniors who live on fixed incomes have a hard time making ends meet. And sometimes, their pets go hungry. 

Through her organization, Sonya takes donated pet food and makes deliveries once a week to seniors on her list. Right now through her organization, she has helped 75 pets to be able to stay with their furrever pet owners. 

It all started when she went to visit her great-grandmother at a senior citizen center. She noticed how difficult it was to afford the extra items including pet food. So, for her tenth birthday, she asked all of her friends to bring pet food or cash so she could help seniors in need. After that, her idea to help others grew into her organization called GrandPaws. 

Sonya doesn’t just help people in need, she rescues pet owners so they can keep living with their loved ones. One of her clients told Sonya that had she not made the food deliveries every week, there was no way she could have kept her two precious cats that she’s had for years. 

Sonya says it feels good to help others in need. She’s gotten to know each of her clients and she knows their stories. Her incredibly kind heart is saving 75 families each week. 

I bet this won’t be the last time we hear anything about this sweet teenager. She is already a bright shining light in this world already. It’s amazing how one heart can affect hundreds of others. 

Proverbs 19:17 "Those who are gracious to the poor lend to the Lord, and the Lord will fully repay them."

A couple with Down Syndrome share their inspiring story of turning their disability into stunning abilities. Chris González and model Sofía Jirau launched a campaign called Sin Límites, which translates to Without Limits in English. 

The campaign is aimed at increasing awareness about the Down syndrome community and showing the world what they can achieve. Not only are they raising awareness about all the things individuals can do despite having Down Syndrome, Chris is the first individual with Down Syndrome in his community in Puerto Rico to get a driver’s license. 

And what’s more, he has his own business–a food truck! He also has his own coffee brand too because apparently, Chris is also a trained Barista. There are absolutely no limits to what this young man can do. It’s just incredible! 

Chris’ father Eugene says he is in awe of his son. He knows his son will sometimes fail but it’s the fact that he keeps trying until he does succeed. 

The same goes for Chris’ girlfriend Sofia who is defying limits too. She made history as a Victoria’s Secret model. And she even walked the runway during New York’s fashion week and she is working on her own fashion line! 

Sofia says she loves the camera and she loves fashion and she recently signed a deal with L'Oreal. In order to stay in shape as a model and business woman, Sofia goes to the gym five days a week! Talk about dedication to her career. 

Her mother says Sofia has been the biggest blessing in her life and is in awe of her everyday as she defy’s the world’s expectations about individuals with Down Syndrome. 

What an incredible story! We hope this power couple inspires you to be who God created you to be and to achieve the dreams God placed in your heart too. With God on our side, there are no limits to what we can do. Like Chris and Sofia, we can dream big without limits! 

Luke 1:37 “For nothing will be impossible with God.”

This video will amaze you. Loren Allred on BGT auditions to “Last Thing I’ll Ever Need,” an original song. 

In this incredible finale performance, Loren Allred, who is also known for being the voiceover for “Never Enough” in The Greatest Showman shines. She has previously received the golden buzzer and now it is her time to sing in the finals. 

Loren decides to sing an original song. As she performs with such passion and authenticity, the judges and the audience really connect with her emotions. She sings of great love and it is very personal to her.

Loren hits notes so powerfully and confidently. Her voice is exquisite. She is such a natural on the stage and so elegant. Her choruses bring the listeners to new heights as she sings of her unending love for her man. The judges compliment Loren. 

They tell her that even though she could have sung something expected or more well-known, they were proud of her for singing from her heart and being herself. They loved hearing her song and seeing who she is as an artist. Loren came into the competition as a singer, but she ended up as an artist. 

She stuns the judges and the audience and all of them give her raving reviews and compliments. 

There is something wonderful about putting our own work out there. It is moving and encouraging because people get to hear our stories. It is a beautiful way to witness others in sharing our testimonies. 

What made Loren’s performance so special was her authenticity. We can use our vulnerability and life-change stories to tell others of God’s work in our lives and the gift of Jesus as savior.
