Called for Life: How Loving Our Neighbor Led Us into the Heart of the Ebola Epidemic

â€œKent, bud. We got your test result.Â And Iâ€™m really sorry to tell you that it is positive for Ebola.â€

Dr. Kent and Amber Brantly moved with their children to war-torn Liberia in the fall of 2013 to provide medical care for people in great needâ€”to help replace hopelessness with hope. When, less than a year later, Kent contracted the deadly Ebola virus, hope became what he and Amber needed too.
Â
When Kent received the diagnosis, he was already alone and in quarantine in the Brantly home in Liberia. Amber and the children had left just days earlier on a trip to the United States. Kentâ€™s personal battle against the horrific Ebola began, and as thousands of people worldwide prayed for his life, a miraculous series of events unfolded.
Â
Called for Life tells the riveting inside story of Kent and Amberâ€™s call to serve their neighbors, as well as Kentâ€™s fight for life with Ebola and Amberâ€™sâ€™ 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.
