Summary

David Eubank saw a problem—and instead of philosophizing about it, he decided to become a solution. As newlyweds, David and his wife moved to Burma (now Myanmar), home of the world’s longest-running civil war, with a vision to care for the hurting and displaced. That was 25 years ago, and it was the birth of the Free Burma Rangers, one of the world’s premiere humanitarian organizations. David is an incredibly aggressive and godly man, with a story you won’t quickly forget.
