What would you do if you were kidnapped and held at gunpoint? Russell Stendal faced that experience.
In 1959, at the age of four, Russell Stendal prayed for God to call his parents to be missionaries.
Within just a few years his whole family had moved from their home in Minneapolis, Minnesota and were living in Colombia as missionaries. When Russell was 27 years old, he was kidnapped by the Marxist guerrillas called the FARC. Formed in 1964, they wanted to overthrow the government and often kidnapped people for ransom. This is the story of what happened.
