What would make a successful Army officer and high-powered sales executive walk away from the American dream? In this episode of Gospel Stories, Zane Bloom shares his remarkable journey—from Catholic altar boy to corporate success, to surrendering it all for God’s call to missions. Just as the mission field doors began to open, life threw unexpected challenges: an unplanned pregnancy, chronic illness, natural disasters, and years of waiting. Through it all, Zane wrestled with God’s timing, discovered the danger of chasing “the next thing,” and learned the power of a simple prayer: Lord, use me for eternal purposes. His story will inspire you to see the ministry opportunities right in front of you and stay faithful in the waiting.
