Author Interview
Born without Legs, She Inspires Others to Overcome
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 thirty feet in the air.
Everything Is Possible is her incredible story--a story of God working out his plan for her life from beforeday one. Readers follow Jen from the challenges of growing up different to holding captive audiences numbering in the tens of thousands. Everything Is Possible shows readers what they can accomplish when they remove the words coincidence and limitation from their vocabulary. 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. Foreword by Nick Vujicic.
Customer Reviews
- Worth listening to.
-
Jen Bricked shows that disability need not hold a person back. With God's help we can achieve much more than would be expected. It is easy to moan about what we are up against but it is much better to look to God and expect the humanly impossible.
Overall - Recommended

Very interesting story, and thought provoking life differences.
Encourages a dream big, go get 'em attitude.
Interest level: Pretty high, certainly not an ordinary life. Lots of good stories.

Everyone has limits (money, physical abilities, talents, etc.), and I thought this would be about how to live a full life despite limits. But I got the impression that she didn't feel that she had limits and didn't want people to act like she did. Nor did she seem to fully understand just how blessed she was to have so many people willing to help her succeed. But, hey, I'm thrilled she's had that support and has found ways to do everything she's wanted to.
Overall - Excellent

Enjoyed hearing her read her own story.
Overall - Quite enriching. Capable of transforming spiritual life, relationship and even ministry. Only that the words in this Audio Book is kind of too fast to grab. Above all, it is great and I pray God for more grace for you. amen

We need more of such materials.
More grace.Overall - When's the sequel?
-
If you're looking for a great work of staggering genius, this isn't it. The author is very young and it comes through in her writing. Cliches and sentence fractions abound. That doesn't totally take away from the experience, however. As a person, the author is incredibly inspiring. I love her attitude, courage, and the depth of her character. Her life and her story leaves me wanting to know what's next for her. While I might not read this book a second time, I would definitely read its sequel.
Overall - Absolutely courageous and inspiring
-
Very inspiring book. Definitely recommended read.
Overall - Very uplifting book that glorifies God!

I really enjoyed this book and her narration. What motivation to not give in to limitations, but to push through and trust God for the results.
Overall - Not a good fit for me.
-
I really wanted to like this book because I am very impressed with the author's life story. However, I unfortunately found it to be too much young lady drama for me. Please understand that I am a fifty nine year old man who listens to audio books while running. I enjoy a little bit more depth.

Interesting and inspirational story.
Overall - Not for me.
-
Not my favorite. It is inspiring, and a great story, but was right on the line between gloving glory to the person and giving glory to God. A little too much "power of positive thinking, you can do anything you set your mind to " for me.
Overall - Jen is an inspiration. A fantastic celebration of life.

I had not ever heard her story and it was awesome. I enjoyed the entire audiobook.
Overall - Excellent!
-
An excellent book. Written in an open, conversational tone, and telling a story of remarkable courage, hope and faith. You don't have a six star approval option, but for this book, you should offer it. And none better to narrate it then the author herself. Job well done!
Overall - Great Book!!

Overall - Awesome!
-
Great book. Jen has such a positive outlook on life. She lives a life of forgiveness and grace. I can't wait for the next book to come out.
Overall - Poor substance
-
The book is very confusing, one minute she is bragging about herself and then someone else is bragging about her.
Overall - Jen Bricker is a girl on a mission!
-
Jen Bricker, acrobat, aerialist, daughter, sister, and speaker, is a woman with a mission to succeed in life and praise the Lord. She strongly believes that God has an amazing plan for her and everyone in the world. We need to trust God and stay connected with Him. God will give His people unbelievable adventures.
Jen shares her story - good, bad, and everything in between. As she shares her life's struggles and victories, Jen encourages her readers. It's a very refreshing read. I would highly recommend Everything is Possible to readers who enjoy biographies, athleticism, and faith journeys.
Jen Bricker narratored her book which I really enjoyed. Her words were in her voice, which doesn't always happen in audiobooks. It was an enjoyable listen. One small note was at the very end of the book after information about how to contact her, she ends with, "Thank you." It felt so genuine and the perfect way to end her story. Thank you, Jen Bricker for sharing your story and your faith.Overall
