  • From Fighting For His Life, To Writing A Life-giving Novel: A Conversation About Overcoming Adversity With Author Joshua Parkerson

    From Fighting For His Life, To Writing A Life-giving Novel: A Conversation About Overcoming Adversity With Author Joshua Parkerson
    Jun 30 2026
    “I can do all things through Christ Who gives me strength!” - Philippians 4:13

    “You take what the enemy meant for evil and turn it for good.” -Elevation Worship

    My son was a healthy teenager playing high school football when a cruel disease called ulcerative colitis (UC) took over his body and left him looking like a concentration camp victim. Today, he’s a walking miracle… praise God!

    Through years of middle of the night emergency room visits, terrifying surgeries, and heart wrenching procedures, I watched my son suffer and trust Jesus. Yes, he had his moments of doubt and anger… but he never gave up! With a deep faith and a positive attitude, he fought the good fight… and the Lord brought him back to life.

    UC stole his large intestine… but we like to say “No colon, still rollin’!” Now, he wants to help others who are shocked by the viciousness of UC. I want to publicly congratulate my son, AUTHOR Joshua Parkerson, for writing and illustrating a graphic novel about overcoming UC… and really, adversity in life. It’s a story based on his own journey that I believe will help other young people process their diagnosis and learn how to overcome. It’s hopeful, inspiring, and truly an example of God’s goodness. PRAISE JESUS!

    Josh is the bravest, kindest, positive human I know and Will and I could not be prouder. He has an ISBN NUMBER! 🎉 This is something GOOD! 🙌 It’s Romans 8:28 in action: “… we know that God causes •everything• to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them." EVERYTHING… even a brutal disease that almost claimed the life of our only son.

    Josh is my very special guest today on the morning show. Join us for a heartfelt conversation about never giving up!

    You are Loved, Erica

  • Celebrating 50 Summers Of Memories At Wild Waves... And Waving Goodbye This Fall (UNLESS SOMEBODY SAVES IT!)

    Celebrating 50 Summers Of Memories At Wild Waves... And Waving Goodbye This Fall (UNLESS SOMEBODY SAVES IT!)
    Jun 26 2026
    Summer in the Puget Sound won’t feel quite the same knowing Wild Waves is splashing through its final season. For so many of us, that park was a rite of passage — sunburned shoulders, soggy towels in the backseat, and the thrill of finally being tall enough for the “big rides.” As the community gathers to celebrate 50 years of memories, this last chapter feels both tender and joyful, a chance to relive the magic one more time before the gates close for good.

    Anybody wanna buy Wild Waves?! Let's gooooooooo!

    I love their mission:

    We are committed to providing basic needs to homeless children so that they can live life without worrying about where they will sleep or what they will eat.

    Washington Kids in Transition is a cause close to my heart... and their Executive Director is our special guest today. Kim Gorney doubles as one of my favorite difference makers in our community!

    Join us for a chat about how kids in the middle of hard circumstances are growing, discovering peace - and worms, learning, and loving our neighbors this summer... in our own backyard!

    You are Loved, Erica
