So Long, Normal - Part 1 with Guest Laura Story

When Laura Story, award-winning singer/songwriter, married her high school sweetheart, it felt like a fairytale come true. But then her husband, Martin, developed a brain tumor, and its removal left him with debilitating memory and sight problems. On today’s Family Talk, Laura declares, “So long, normal!” In her 2011 Grammy award-winning song, “Blessings,” Laura asked God, “What if Your healing comes through tears? What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near? And what if trials in this life are Your mercies in disguise?” Through difficult experiences, Laura learned that the Lord does incredible things when we surrender our brokenness to Him.
