Nick Vujicic’s ‘Champions for the Brokenhearted’ Inspires Christians to Live Like Jesus

PLANO — As the Christmas season approaches, NickV Ministries is encouraging believers to point the brokenhearted toward the hope found in Jesus Christ. Through his newest book, Champions for the Brokenhearted, founder and CEO Nick Vujicic is challenging Christians to embrace compassion, serve those who are hurting, and live like Jesus during the holidays and beyond.

While the Christmas season often brings joy and celebration, it can also be a time of emotional struggle. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, 64 percent of individuals living with mental illness report that their conditions worsen during the holidays. Vujicic’s book speaks directly to that pain, offering comfort, perspective, and biblical encouragement to those searching for healing and peace.

A Global Ministry of Hope

Since 2005, NickV Ministries has shared the Gospel with more than 800 million people worldwide through live events and digital outreach. As the organization celebrates its 20th anniversary, it continues to pursue an ambitious goal—to reach 1 billion people with the Good News of Jesus Christ by 2028.

Vujicic’s highly anticipated book, releasing November 16, marks two decades of ministry impact. It reflects the same heart that has carried him across 84 countries, where he has shared his story with students, families, professionals, and world leaders alike.

“The journey of this book began long before any pages were written,” said Vujicic. “It began in hospital rooms, homeless shelters, and prison cells—places where pain meets grace. I realized that the Gospel is not just good news; it’s urgent news, especially for the brokenhearted.”

Overcoming Brokenness Through Faith

Born without arms and legs, Nick Vujicic faced bullying, isolation, and deep depression as a child. At just ten years old, he attempted to take his own life. Yet, in his darkest moment, he encountered the transforming love of Jesus Christ—a moment that changed everything.

“Growing up, it wasn’t easy,” he shared. “I battled loneliness and questioned my purpose. But Jesus met me in my pain. Since then, I’ve traveled the world to tell others that there is hope.”

Through Champions for the Brokenhearted, Vujicic invites readers to become vessels of that same hope. The book equips believers to reach those who are hurting, lonely, or forgotten, reminding them that no one is beyond God’s healing grace.

A Mission of Compassion

“Brokenness doesn’t discriminate,” said Vujicic. “It doesn’t care about your income, your zip code, or your title. It’s the common denominator of humanity. Yet Jesus came for the brokenhearted, offering healing and restoration.”

Vujicic emphasizes that this is not simply a book—it is a mission for every believer willing to say, “Send me.” Pre-orders for Champions for the Brokenhearted are now available, with readers receiving instant access to the introduction chapter for free.

Continuing the Call to Reach the World

In a culture increasingly shaped by digital media, NickV Ministries continues to balance modern outreach with traditional evangelism. Just as Jesus preached to both crowds and individuals, the ministry remains committed to meeting people where they are—online, in churches, and at large gatherings across the globe.

Since late 2024, NickV Ministries reports that more than 812 million people have heard the Gospel, with over 1 million decisions for Christ recorded at in-person events. Through innovative campaigns, digital tools, and live ministry, the organization remains steadfast in its mission to reach 1 billion souls by 2028.
