Who can remember what resilience is?

Today, you will meet one of the most resilient role models there is. A man born without arms and legs. Today he is a youth pastor and an inspirational speaker. He is originally from Australia but now lives in California. Meet Nick Vujicic - you might not always agree exactly with what he is saying, but you will be moved and you will be inspired.

Guess what? He got married and has a kid now... now, that is one resilient guy.
