Book excerpt: Prepare for geographical whiplash as you travel around the world with author Jeff Scoggins through his adventures as a military brat, then missionary kid turned missionary family. Hold your breath as little Jeff saws into a live bullet with a hacksaw, runs from his schoolroom to a nearby bomb shelter, takes a punch from the class bully, buys a three-hundred-dollar bunch of bananas, rows furiously down an African river to escape its crocs and hippos, and much more. Then, experience the goodness of an angel in a red Dodge pickup, listen in as Jeff's dad asks how he plans to dispose of the dead body in his trunk, and watch as he scrambles to pull up tent stakes ahead of a storm full of tornadoes. Ultimately, through the power of these short but exciting stories, you’ll discover that no earthly adventure beats the one that is living life with Jesus.
