Summary

Sitting at breakfast with a group of friends, Brian realized the story he was hearing was something aggressive and inspiring. So he pulled out his iPhone, opened a voice memo, and hit record. When Nick and his family left for vacation, they had no idea it would turn into a harrowing race against time to save his daughter's life. But aggressive decision-making in the moment, and in the years leading up to it, meant Nick had a safety net when he needed it most. Baked into this story is the need for friendships, the power of generosity, and miracles in prayer. Listen and be inspired.
