Emily Thomas, bridging the worlds of the hearing and the deaf

For some deaf recipients of Cochlear Implants, it can take
up to ten years to learn to distinguish sounds and to
speak.  But for Emily Thomas, from Oklahoma, it was a
miraculously short period of less than two years; years which
coincided with her finding the Gospel and deciding that God’s
gift of words to her was a sacred trust.


In this audio interview with Emily Thomas, a professional
counselor deaf since birth, you’ll learn three things deaf church
members wish hearing members understood about them, hear a
remarkable story of the Gospel of Jesus Christ bringing a family
together after a decade, and generally bask in the glow of
someone full of the light of the Lord.


That's this week on The Cricket and Seagull.
