Running to the Fire

Helping in Jesus' Name

About this book

How did a small-town boy with no experience become the "Indiana Jones of global relief" with one of the most effective humanitarian organizations in the world? Because God dreams bigger than we do.

Join Ken Isaacs on his personal journey from answering God's "Are you serious?" call through three decades of boots-on-the-ground stories showing us how to be a Good Samaritan no matter where we are. Offering a fascinating behind-the-scenes look into the incredible work of Samaritan's Purse, this action-packed memoir takes us from the 1989 Ethiopian famine to the 1994 Rwandan genocide to the 2011 Japanese tsunami up to today's worldwide crises—and the countless decisions, dangers, and prayers along the way.

With reflections drawn from Scripture and decades of ministry, Running to the Fire is a testimony to God's goodness as well as a call to live boldly, love radically, and trust deeply in the God who guides us not away from the fire but through it.
