This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Built by Fire: Hearing God in the Middle of the Flames is a true, first-person account of a life shaped in extreme environments—war zones, disaster sites, humanitarian missions, and deeply personal trials—where survival depended not only on training and instinct, but on listening to the quiet, unmistakable voice of God.
Drawn from real-time journal entries, David A. Burnell recounts experiences in military service, search and rescue, protective operations, and international missions in places such as Haiti, Japan, and Burma. These are not distant reflections, but lived moments where fear, loss, faith, and divine guidance collided under intense pressure.
This audiobook is not about heroism—it is about obedience.
Not about avoiding hardship—but recognizing revelation within it.
Through moments of danger, heartbreak, and uncertainty, Burnell bears witness to how the Holy Ghost comforts, warns, refines, and directs—often when outcomes are unclear, and the cost is high. He shares how personal breaking became preparation, and how some missions were less about locations and more about the souls God placed in his path.
This audiobook is for listeners who have faced trials, questioned whether God was aware of them, or felt prompted to act without knowing why. Built by Fire is a testimony that God speaks—clearly and personally—even in the middle of the flames.
