S3 15: From Isolated to Reaching Out With Emily Colson

The lockdown of the last few years affected all of us in one way or another. Emily Colson and her son Max, who has autism, were stripped of outside community and the team who helped them. Desperate to find things for Max to do, Emily cleared the dining room table, got out all the paints, and let Max play with the colors. What happened after that has surprised everyone. Join us as we hear Emily and Max’s journey of how God has loved and led them through this all.    Heart by Max with The Colson Center  Heart by Max website  Dancing with Max: A Mother and Son Who Broke Free by Emily Colson and Chuck Colson  Walking on Water: Reflections on Faith and Art by Madeline L’Engle  Erin and her husband, Brett, run Maven which “exists to help the next generation know truth, pursue goodness, and create beauty, all for the cause of Christ.” Check out more about Maven here: https://maventruth.com/   The Strong Women Podcast is a product of the Colson Center which equips Christians to live out their faith with clarity, confidence, and courage in this cultural moment.
