Riveting experiences from both the US Army and as a missionary all play out upon an international stage in the thirty countries where Carl has lived or visited. Carl's life is an open book about big decisions. Decisions that led to blessing and disaster. Yet whether he was in Iran or along the communist border of East Germany, one thing never failed: the merciful, loving, kind, and all-powerful presence of God was always there for Carl. Carl will convince you that even though life is a challenge to live, God is way bigger and you can do all things he calls you to do through Christ who strengthens you.
