Everything Is Possible: Finding
the Faith and Courage to
Follow Your Dreams
by Jen Bricker
Jen Bricker was
born without legs.
Shocked and
uncertain they could
care for her, her
biological parents
gave her up for
adoption. In her
loving adoptive
home, there was just
one simple rule: “Never say can’t.” And
pretty soon, there was nothing this small
but mighty powerhouse set her sights on
that she couldn’t conquer: roller skating,
volleyball, power tumbling and spinning
from silk ribbons 30 feet in the air. Filled
with heart and spirit as well as Jen’s wit,
wisdom and no-holds-barred honesty,
this inspiring true story points the way
to purpose and joy.
