Marlene was twenty-two, a new baby in arms, when her husband said, "I think God's calling us to give our lives to the Philippines." Her response? "Sounds like an adventure " But three years into their successful ministry, Marlene loses her entire family to a plane crash, and Don and Marlene must return home to run the family business.


They'd planned on selling the business and returning to "God's work" until a world-famous evangelist told them that they could do even more good for the Kingdom of God by running their business well and supporting missionaries. That conversation changed everything. Over the next sixty years, they planted hundreds of churches and touched hundreds of thousands of lives.


In this book, Marlene tells her fascinating story and shares hard-won wisdom about prayer, prosperity, marriage, and generosity. Above all, she urges us to pursue an adventurous life of great faith.
