A Mission Without Borders: Why a Father and Son Risked It All for the People of Ukraine

About this book

The inspiring true story of US elite special operations veterans fighting for freedom in Ukraine and discovering the power of faith, sacrifice, and hope. Author, speaker, and former Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux offers an honest, no-holds-barred account of what has really been happening in Ukraine and shares powerful stories that are soaked in resiliency and determination, faith, and sacrifice in the face of overwhelming opposition. When Russian forces invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, former Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux knew that innocent people were about to be exposed to untold brutality. He also knew that God was inviting him to get involved. With little idea of the trials that would follow, Chad's response was simple and clear: "yes." As he gathered a team of elite special operations veterans, he invited his twenty-five-year-old son, Hunter--also a Marine combat veteran--to partner with him in Ukraine. Over the course of seven trips, Chad saw a change in Hunter as his confidence grew and he excelled among the team. Chad's own faith also grew as he learned to relinquish control and trust God with his son, as well as what he witnessed in the brutality of war. A Mission Without Borders is a powerful account of the lessons we can learn whenever we say yes to God. Chad's experience will help you: Understand what the conflict in Ukraine was like for everyday citizens beyond the political fog. Discover how a bond can grow between a father and son as they face hardship together. Realize that God doesn't just call us to go to the aid of the people we know and love, sometimes he calls us to help strangers--because it's the right thing to do. A Mission Without Borders will take you deep into the war in Ukraine, from Russia's use of ballistic and chemical weapons on civilians to the inspirational story of the role that the Ukrainian church has played in the war. Chad's story of courage and hope will inspire and challenge you. USA TODAY BESTSELLER
