BraveMen S3E43: Luke Zamperini - A Dramatic Story of Hope and Survival

Brave Men Podcast - A podcast by Paul Louis Cole

Louis Zamperini was an honored American World War ll hero. His story of faith, forgiveness and surviving the tortures of a Japanese prison became the basis for the bestselling book and movie, “Unbroken”. Luke Zamperini is his son and heads up the Louis Zamperini Foundation which takes the amazing story of his dad to schools and young people across the nation. Louis Zamperini was a 1936 Berlin Olympic runner that volunteered to fly planes in the war. He was shot down off the Marshall Islands and drifted at sea for 47 days. Captured by the Japanese he was tortured and beaten relentlessly. Surviving this and then forgiving his captors as he became a follower of Christ is one of the most inspiring stories of our generation. On Brave Men Luke talks about his dad – and the hope the story inspires in the hearts of men.
