Mike Kinney shouldn’t be alive today. When his truck slammed into a telephone pole and burst into flames, the seventeen-year-old became pinned in the driver seat. Moments before the vehicle was consumed by fire, Mike was pulled from the burning wreckage of twisted metal as his body burned. After his guitar was incinerated in the blaze, Pete Townshend from The Who, a musical inspiration, sent him a new guitar, offering, “This is the Phoenix.” In the wake of his Phoenix moment of rising from the ashes, Mike wanted to believe that his life had been saved for a unique purpose. But along the way—through a brutally painful physical recovery, learning to live with a brain injury, and eventually several vocational disappointments—that purpose to which he believed God had called him seemed in jeopardy. Determined, though, Mike pressed on.Mike Kinney’s life was saved by God from the flames for a unique purpose, and Out of the Fire invites readers to live out the purpose God has for their lives—even when, and especially when, that purpose seems to be in jeopardy.Get my new book 'The Path of an Eagle: How To Overcome & Lead After Being Knocked Down'.► AMAZON US► AMAZON AUS► AMAZON UKCONNECT WITH JAY & THE STORY BOX► INSTAGRAM ► TWITTER  ► FACEBOOK ► WEBSITE  Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thestorybox.

Pat Bradley serves as founder and CEO of Crisis Aid International. In September 2000, Pat Bradley witnessed the results of the genocide in South Sudan firsthand and knew at that moment that “doing nothing” was not an option. His helplessness turned into action as he returned to the United States to raise money for starving people in “no-go zones” where starvation, disease, and danger are a part of everyday life. He soon returned to provide bags of rice to Sudanese people in need. A humble beginning turned into life-saving efforts for people in crisis living in eleven different countries. In 2002 Crisis Aid was officially incorporated. Once Pat took that first step to “do something”, others quickly joined, enabling Crisis Aid to deliver a wide variety of resources over the years. Together with its partners, Crisis Aid has provided more than 26 million pounds of food, served 3.9 million adults and malnourished children, and 2,500 sex trafficking victims and high-risk youth helped, the youngest being 4 years of age.In his new book, Born for Rescue, Crisis Aid International CEO Pat Bradley shares the stories of rescue and recovery that have taken place all around the world. Get my new book 'The Path of an Eagle: How To Overcome & Lead After Being Knocked Down'.► AMAZON US► AMAZON AUS► AMAZON UKSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/thestorybox.

This is a very special conversation, my friends. It's not every day that you are able to speak with a Holocaust survivor. Tova Friedman is one incredible woman and her story should move you, inspire you and challenge you. What you are about to listen to is the miraculous story of a woman who escaped death more times than she can count. Tova's story also comes as a warning for future generations, to be ever so careful not to make the same mistakes as past generations made. This is a story you won't soon forget. To do this story the justice it deserves - the whole week will be dedicated to Tova's story. Tova Friedman was one of the youngest people to emerge from Auschwitz. After surviving the liquidation of the Jewish ghetto in Central Poland where she lived as a toddler, Tova was five when she and her parents were sent to a Nazi labour camp, and almost six when she and her mother were forced into a packed cattle truck and sent to Auschwitz II, also known as the Birkenau extermination camp, while her father was transported to Dachau.During six months of incarceration in Birkenau, Tova witnessed atrocities that she could never forget, and experienced numerous escapes from death. She is one of a handful of Jews to have entered a gas chamber and lived to tell the tale.Get 'The Daughter of Auschwitz' Here: Pre-order my new book 'The Path of an Eagle: How To Overcome & Lead After Being Knocked Down'.► AMAZON US► AMAZON AUSGet The First Chapter of my book free/Gifts https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/book/  Listen to my conversation with Holocaust Survivor Dr Edith Eger.
