From a heartbroken but hopeful GSET team

Three nights ago, our founder and inspiration, Joshua Jet Vaughan, collapsed while recording his album and fell into a coma.  He is not breathing on his own, and we do not have word yet from his wife Anna, as to when or if he will wake up.  We've been shattered here at the GSET, praying and crying, and though we knew with his health that this was a possibility, this is just not something that you can ever truly prepare yourself for. Joshua is like a father, mentor, teacher, friend, brother to all of us here.  We've been overwhelmed with grief and anger at the injustice that such a great man, the best man, would ever go through this.

We have decided to continue posting.  It is what Joshua would want.  We have to carry on his mission to share people's stories, to help them to get help themselves, and to give a voice to the people who don't have one.  Joshua has lived his life being all heart.  We wish would could all fly out to be by his side, but the best thing we can do, and what he would want us to do, is to carry on with reaching out to people from all walks of life and show them the love that he has shown to us.  We hope, pray and believe that he will wake up, and when he does, we want him to be proud and feel safe knowing that we have faithfully carried on living out his dream of lifting up the world in love.

Before Joshua collapsed, he had just come up with the idea to connect other blogs to ours. A sister blog affiliation of sorts.  Another way to reach out and help others to connect to one another, get our stories heard.  We will be posting a page, shortly, that will include the blogs of anyone who might add our blog to theirs and we will do likewise.  This way that anyone who visits The Greatest Stories Ever Told will have not only our blog to read, but access to several others sharing the same message.  Giving people a voice and connecting people through love, Joshua's vision and life mission, and using the tools of social media and the internet for good, not to separate people more or segregate them, but to bring them closer together in love.

Joshua, we hope and pray we have done you justice.  You are so important to so many people and we all love you very much. Please wake up.  We will do our best to carry on your vision without you, but don't make us do it now.  We want to work with you, not in memory of you. You are our inspiration, motivation and nobody and nothing could ever replace your presence in our lives.  Be strong and of good courage, we know you are the strongest an alive, please use that strength to come back to your loved ones and the people who love and need you in their lives..
