Survivor's Obligation: Navigating an Intentional Life
by Chris Stricklin and Joel Neeb
Chris Stricklin ejected from the F-16 he was piloting during a Thunderbirds air show. Joel Neeb was diagnosed with a rare and often fatal cancer. Against the odds, both survived.
Chris and Joel met years after their individual life-changing events and discovered they both had a desire to share their stories to help others. They resolved to fulfill what they call survivor’s obligation—a responsibility to live an intentional life—for themselves and their families, and in honor of those who didn’t get a second chance.
In Survivor’s Obligation, Chris and Joel share the true stories that transformed their lives. They explore the questions they asked themselves about why they received a second chance at life when others did not. Along their journey of healing, they discovered the power of gratitude, growth, and giving to help them navigate their everyday choice to live intentionally.
Reflection questions in the back of the book allow readers to find connections in their own lives and inspiration for navigating an intentional life.
