Synopsis:

How long does it take to burn to death?

This question raced through Sam Brown’s mind as he burned alive alongside a dirt road in Afghanistan. At 24, he was pursuing his lifelong ambition of serving in the US military when his vehicle detonated one of the Taliban’s bombs. Sam was desperate for death to end his pain. Instead, a fellow soldier extinguished the blaze.

Sam’s life had been saved, but for what purpose?

Sustained by his newfound faith, Sam endured a long, painful recovery as he grappled with losing his physical identity, his military career, and his dreams of making an impact. Yet he also discovered the power of serving others and embarked on a seemingly impossible love story. In Alive Day, Sam shares his inspiring story of perseverance, hope, and faith, taking readers from the ashes of a life lost to the freedom of an identity that cannot be shaken.
