About this title

Synopsis

“Kent, bud. We got your test result.  And I’m really sorry to tell you that it is positive for Ebola.”
 
Called for Life tells the riveting inside story of Kent and Amber’s call to serve their neighbors, as well as Kent’s fight for life with Ebola and Amber’s’ struggle to support him from half-a-world away. Most significantly, Called for Life reminds us of the risk, the honor, and the joy to be known when God and others are served without reservation.
