[…]the Lord, both from inside the body and from the culture in which we live. Each day in the OCF Home Office we have devotions and a time of prayer to honor the requests from OCF members and families living and serving around the world. This is our most important work of the day and we are committed to honor each request.

[…]out the U.S. policy toward Vietnam, the President prepared to start bringing troops home and many back home protested the war in America’s streets. He knew that wasn’t how things were supposed to be but was being honest with Al. When Al received Jon’s letter he immediately penned a reply that mildly scolded Jon and lovingly but directly charged him with the firm responsibility of taking the fight aggressively to the enemy.
