Description
What Are You Going to Do? tells the inspiring true story of Everett Swanson, a preacher whose world was turned upside down when he stumbled upon starving orphans in war-torn Korea in the 1950s. He could’ve walked away. But the plight of these children broke his heart. He faced the question: “What are you going to do?” Authors Matt Bronleewe and Eric Wilson tell the story of how Swanson’s answer to those six little words led to the organization known today as Compassion International. Seventy years later, over two million children all over the world have been sponsored through Compassion International, providing meals, education, vocational training, Bibles, letters of support, and more. We are often faced with the same question, “What am I going to do?” And, like Swanson, we feel inadequate, afraid, or ill-equipped. Readers will see how small faithful choices can lead to larger ones—and in so doing, change the world for generations to come. Everyone—young and old—should be acquainted with this amazing story of faith, courage, and compassion.
