    About this audiobook

    Dr. Kent and Amber Brantly (with David Thomas) tell of Dr. Brantly's near-death encounter with the Ebola virus in Liberia. The first American diagnosed during the 2014 outbreak, Dr. Brantly's ordeal-including his controversial evacuation to and hospitalization in the United States-received worldwide media attention. Interspersed in the account is the full story of how both Kent and his wife, Amber, sought to serve others in the name of Christ in Liberia. Then, when tragedy struck-as thousands, perhaps millions of people worldwide prayed for his life-miraculous events unfolded that resulted in Dr. Brantly's flight to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta…and an eventual clean bill of health.

      Awesome lesson of fighting the fear of disease with God's power & emerging scientific medicine...the testimony is beautiful.

      Called for Life is about a medical missionary family caring for people in Liberia. While there, Kent gets Ebola. The story is heartfelt and touching. Told from both Kent & his wife, Amber's, perspectives with an honest voice. It brought tears to my eyes during the intense and emotional times when Ken almost died. A bonus is that you can look up YouTube footage of some of the happenings in the book. Great read!

      Excellent book - even though I'm biased with a background in Liberian healthcare (having worked at ELWA hospital soon after the war ended), I still believe that anyone who enjoys autobiographical works will enjoy this book. This is the reality of struggling with one's own mortality while grieving for others who are in even more dire straits.
