Plucked from the Burning

Ken Spilger was the only survivor of a plane crash in St Louis, MO while coming home from a conference. Beth and Ken went through very hard times physically, emotionally and financially following the plane crash and it changed their lives. Now, 33 years after the crash, they are telling their story of how God carried them through their trials. Our journey in life includes many hard times that can either push us away from or pull us closer to God. "It's a miracle anyone survived. I've never seen an airplane so devastated." That is how one official "reacted to a light-plane crash that killed three area Baptist ministers and seriously injured another during an attempted landing early Wednesday. . . The Rev. Kenneth P. Spilger . . . was reported in serious but stable condition Thursday at the burn unit of St. John's Mercy Medical Center." (St. Louis Globe-Democrat, September 18, 1980; used by permission.) This book is about our personal journey through a very difficult time when Ken was the only survivor of a plane crash with major 3rd degree burns. It is our prayer that God will use this book to encourage you to keep your focus on God and His purpose for your life. Through 59 days in the hospital, 8 months in physical therapy and massive medical bills, Ken and Beth Spilger with their two young daughters learned to deepen their trust in God. They are now telling their story in this 200+ page book with 8 pages of color photos. - Publisher.
