  • Summary

  • Consigned to the depths of depravity in drugs, addiction, guns, and gangs, Sam Childers, a biker, cried out, "I'm done living this life!" After surrendering his life to Jesus, he felt called to go to East Africa to help repair homes destroyed by civil war. Transformed by the horrors he saw Sam built an orphanage in the heart of territory controlled by Joseph Kony’s brutal LRA militia. However, establishing a shelter was not enough. Determined to save as many lives as possible, Sam and his team took up arms and went deep into enemy territory to rescue kidnapped and children. To his critics, Sam asks, “If a madman came in and abducted your child, and I said to you, I can bring your child home – does it matter how I bring him home?” A fervent, self-proclaimed Christian freedom fighter. Sam’s explosive book "Another Man's War", was made into a movie starring Gerard Butler, “Machine Gun Preacher” In this wide-ranging interview for Nightlight, Sam tells his personal testimony, as well as the true story of the real-life machine gun preacher!
