Inspirational stories! And true! Actually, Pat and his wife Sue, through their organization Crisis Aid International, have impacted so many lives that it is hard to capture in a book. I personally participated in some of the aid efforts and saw Pat and his organization in action. I can assure you that he changed many lives through his sincerity and compassion, and his refusal to do nothing, just like he changed mine.
I dare anybody to read this book. Expect an awakening or re-awakening of the desire that is in everybody’s soul to make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate. You don’t have to an ‘on fire Christian’ to come away from reading these stories with a strong desire to do something. Key is Pat’s admonishment to not get discouraged or overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of the problems many are facing in this world. Focus on the individual, demonstrate respect and compassion for the human being, one person at the time. This has been key to Pat’s success in turning so many lives around, as it will be for anybody in their endeavor to help their neighbor.
Pat shows in his stories that each life matters. He demonstrates through his stories, but more importantly through his actions on the ground, that even if we only change one person’s life, that is enormously impactful, for that person!!!!!

"I have felt so honored to play a small part in saving lives and souls through Crisis Aid."The reason I care about Crisis Aid is that I have witnessed the urgency first hand. My eyes have been opened to the desperation in which so many live. I have watched people on the brink of starvation be nursed back to life. Sadly, I have also seen some starve to death before my eyes. I have met many women who have been rescued from the horrors of the red light district, and then go on to live productive and godly lives. I have felt so honored to play a small part in saving lives and souls through Crisis Aid. Francis Chan -- Author/Speaker/Bible Teacher |

Modern Day Hero!
I was blown away by the unwavering obedience to God throughout Pat Bradley’s journey. My husband and I have known the Bradley Family for over 25 years and had NO idea he was always in so much danger. And the horrific accommodations he endured to complete so many of these missions - it makes your skin crawl! The photo is of us and Pat & Sue years ago at their 4th of July pool party.We have given our friends and family a copy of the book and they can’t believe it’s true. We know first hand that It’s 100% true! Not only that - he left out many of the worst scenarios due to the safety concerns of those rescued. We know you will be inspired by his story and eager to find your purpose by refusing to do nothing!

Pat’s authenticity and imperfections are so refreshing to read about. We all have this images in our minds of Christian “super heroes” who we just can’t relate to. But Pat shares so much of his humanity and failings that this book really will leave you feeling like “if he can do it, I guess God could do it with me too”. It is such a testament to how good God is that he really can use any of us.
That said, I really believe Pat is an all star in the Kingdom. Very much in a “the greatest in the kingdom is a servant” type of way. Without much fanfare Pat and CrisisAid are making such a huge impact helping countless lives and not looking for applause, but just want to keep doing the work God has put on their hearts.
This book will break your heart with what is happening in this world but will leave you encouraged and inspired that you and I (no matter who we are) can make a difference with God’s help. I hope it impacts you the way it has impacted me!
