Shawn opens up about his journey with Parkinson’s and the moment everything changed with one doctor’s appointment, while Jill shares what it looks like to cling to faith when life takes an unexpected turn. Together, the Johnsons reveal how “kissing the fire” has become more than just a phrase—it’s their daily declaration to keep trusting God, even when the flames are fierce. This conversation is raw, honest, and full of life-giving encouragement for anyone walking through their own season of struggle.  Connect with us on social!  Shawn: @shawnjohnsonrrc  Jill: @jilljohnson03  Levi: @levilusko  Jennie: @jennielusko  Fresh Life Church: @freshlife Read Kiss the Fire: http://bit.ly/3IQQMFU Red Rocks Worship Tour: http://bit.ly/3J1lWua Get the 5 Gallon Bucket: https://bit.ly/sdl4sHY Get the Lusketeer Sticker: https://bit.ly/sdl4sHY Subscribe for more exclusive content: https://levilusko.com/hitl-subscribe  Time Stamps:  01:09 – The diagnosis  06:06 – Kiss the Fire  08:12 – Writing through pain  10:53 – Hope in the hard days  21:48 – Finding balance and healing  29:45 – A prayer for the fight
