[…]you serve a crucial function in our armed forces. You stand on the cusp between direct leadership with the lower ranks and executive leadership with senior ranks. Where you previously led collections of soldiers, sailors, airmen, or marines you now lead other leaders. Once you dealt with personalities and individual abilities; now you deal with plans, policies, and resources for large organizations. You are in a strategic position. By virtue of your rank and position subordinates look to you to set the standard. The example you portray as a Christian leader has the ability to directly affect the personal conduct […]
[…]it into multiple parts and pray over one section per day. Ask God questions about your military leadership and everything on your heart; it reminds us to listen. When He answers it enables us to see His relevance in the practical aspects of our life. Journaling Capture God’s answers to prayer and His revelations of truth (Proverbs 29:18). This is how we actively listen, pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17), grow, and demonstrate to God that we can be trusted as faithful stewards of His insights. Additional, Intentional Steps toward Spiritual Preparedness and Maintenance: Pray for and seek out Christian […]
[…]Despite all God had done for them, they murmured and complained against the Almighty God and His servant, Moses. “The people spoke against them,” says the Word. How lenient the tone! By actual count this was the twelfth time they had murmured against the Lord. How the patience of Jehovah God must have been tried! “Why had they been brought out of Egyptian bondage?” they wanted to know. They complained that they had no bread and no water and they detested the manna that rained daily from heaven. Finally the limit of God’s patience was reached and god sent poisonous […]
[…]of a biblical family in military leadership. You will begin to develop an understanding of servant leadership (to serve versus be served). One lieutenant visited colleges within 100 miles and helped establish OCF groups at those schools. Others have discipled new believers. Still others have joined our chapel choirs and praise bands. Whatever ministry the Lord has for you, become a part of our OCF/base chapel team. Our vision of a spiritually transformed military is the chaplain’s vision, too, and your leadership and skills will be a great help to them. Chaplains don’t have elders. They don’t have deacons. They […]
[…]building activities after lunch. We form two even groups. Competition! Very similar to field leadership reaction course (FLRC). Connect multiple picnic tables with 2X4s, cross your team from one table to the next. Too funny. Square rope drill (I’ll stop here so I don’t give it all away). The ultimate: maneuvering/swimming lots of “stuff” across the pond, plus all your team. Cold water. Very cold water. Brian and I float across together. Boys are loving this. Dads are all smiling. This is good. Recovery time. Boys won’t rest, time to fish. Brian caught his first trout, delicious at dinner (you […]
[…]historians have often missed the mark on why Washington possessed such strong qualities of leadership and character. His Christian faith was the most potent force in his life and yet, to read modern history, one could never learn what truly set Washington apart from his peers. Some revisionist historians today even suggest that Washington was a deist, though there is no scholarly evidence to support such a claim. These historians further claim that it was Washington’s luck, combined with Yankee ingenuity, bravery, and tactics that allowed America to prevail as a nation and garnered Washington a place in history as […]

[…]is finally getting the knack of it, he leaves again! The wife may have come to enjoy having the leadership role and may be reluctant to give it up again. Or the husband may demand it back too abruptly and cause resentment on the part of his wife. Some men may even feel threatened on their return to learn how competently their wives have coped without them. They may interpret this as meaning that their wives don’t need them or love them as much as before. This is where a sensitive wife must help her husband to understand that being […]

[…]influencing the lives of everyone in your unit. I praise God for Christians like you who provide leadership both for mission accomplishment and to help the personnel in your unit. Our nation needs leaders like you to make command decisions — and so does that portion of Christ’s Church within the military! Why God May Lead You to be Involved in Chapel Ministry I’ve served as a civilian church pastor for seven years. I deeply appreciate the ministry of Christian churches and their leaders. Both are appointed by God for His purposes. I’ve also served on active duty in the […]

[…]faith rather than preach with words. It was no secret that I was involved with OCF and the chapel leadership. Occasionally I deemed it appropriate to be more vocal. I had a civilian employee who was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor. When we found out, I went to his office and closed the door for a private conversation. We discussed his treatment and prognosis. He had some questions about his benefits, some of which I could answer and some of which I had to promise to find out for him. At the end, I asked for his permission to […]
[…]done” of men or even our precious alma mater. It’s only the “well done, good and faithful servant,” of our risen Lord that matters. Jesus is Lord! Let these three words mark what you should be, what you can be, and what by God’s grace and your persistent decision, you will be. “Therefore, my dear brothers,”–my brothers and sisters just embarking on an exciting adventure of service to men under the Kingship of God–“stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not […]
