People are freaking out abt the CDC decision to bring the two missionaries infected with the Ebola virus back to the US so that the disease can be studied and a vaccine developed but Id like to bring attention to the two brave missionaries/aid workers who have put their lives on the line: Nancy Writebol and Kent Brantly chose to serve Christ by caring for the sick and poor, knowing that they were putting their lives at risk. They became friends with the dying, and in so doing, even before they contracted the disease, lay down their lives for them, sacrificing their own safety and comfort and well-being for those in need. And they did all of this in obscurity, until their own lives were nearly lost. The contrast between these two faithful disciples and the Christian suburbanite herd freaking out that their little self-serving bubbles might be affected is enormous. christandpopculture/citizenship-confusion-ebola-faithful-witness-writebol-brantly/
