Summary

For over 30 years, Ken Isaacs has (literally) run into the fires of war, genocide, and natural disaster around the world. Serving with Samaritan’s Purse alongside my dad, Ken has seen and experienced evil so total, contrasted by miracles that have no explanation outside of the hand of God. Today on Fearless Ken shares the heart behind his new book—Running to the Fire—plus what led him to a life spent serving the Lord and going where God has called, even when there are no roads.

Hi, I'm Sissy Graham Lynch. Welcome to Fearless, helping you have a fearless faith in a compromising culture.

0:09.0

Feel less. I want to be fearless.

Welcome back to Fearless. I'm Sissy Graham Lynch. And as I was thinking about how to introduce today's guest, I wasn't even sure I couldn't even come up with the words.

0:30.0

Because an introduction could never fully convey what God has done through this man. And growing up under the umbrella of Samaritan's purse, I always understood

0:39.1

that the work was never just my dad, Franklin Graham. But it was the incredible men and women

0:45.3

God placed around him, especially when Samaritan's purse was just a small and growing organization.

0:51.4

People came to work because they wanted to serve. And these are people with

0:55.3

unassuming and sometimes even unqualified backgrounds, but they were called and they were willing

Thank you, Susie. It's great to be with you. I really do mean that. It was hard to come up with an

1:39.4

introduction for you because you can't really convey to the listener of how much you've done

1:43.7

and what God

1:44.7

has done through your life. If people read it in the news or seen it at 6 p.m. on the nightly news,

1:51.0

Samaritan's purse and you're right there on the front lines. And we'll get into that of why it's

1:54.9

important to be the first. But this book, as I was telling you, I've been reading it,

2:00.6

running to the fires coming out,

2:03.0

and I've learned a lot.
