What if the very thing the world calls a weakness is actually your child’s greatest strength?
In this powerful and deeply moving episode of The Way of Valor, Angie Taylor sits down with Dr. Ed Newton, Lead Pastor of Community Bible Church in San Antonio and author of the new book Why Not Me?. Together, they unpack identity, discipleship, rejection, learning differences, and how parents can partner with God to raise confident, faith-filled kids in today’s culture.
Dr. Newton vulnerably shares his personal story growing up as the only child of two deaf parents, navigating learning differences, battling anxiety and depression, and ultimately discovering freedom by believing what God says about him instead of what rejection had spoken over his life.
This conversation is especially meaningful for parents who are:

• Raising kids with learning differences, ADHD, dyslexia, or autism
• Struggling to help their children believe in themselves
• Wondering how to disciple their kids without forcing faith
• Passionate about calling out God-given purpose rather than fixing “flaws”
