I Only See Green

[…]all mankind, not just one race or two. Jesus showed in many ways that race did not impact His thinking. For instance, He did not hesitate to show love to a Samaritan woman with whom he as a Jew should not have associated. The Son of God is many things to me, but racist is certainly not one of them. I see only green, my Savior sees only hearts. 1LT (P) Kevin Polosky, USA, was commissioned as an infantry officer in March 1998. While stationed at Fort Benning he wrote this article to share with the youth group he was […]

Predicting the Future

[…]and tries to predict an outcome that will keep us whole or stable. The Bible speaks to our nature in doing this. First, God’s universe is an ordered universe… nothing random about its creation or existence. Second, true security only operates in the reality of who Jesus Christ is and what He has done for us. Focusing on the short-term versus the long-term perspective always gives us a different aiming point. Focusing on just today, tomorrow, or next year may pull our eyes off the long-term race we run. King Solomon had it right when he said all this is […]

The Line Officer and the Chaplain

[…]of situations. On field maneuvers, in hangar bays and electrical repair shops, on adventure training trips, in professional development classes and counseling sessions, in front-line combat, or in the day-to-day routines of office work — non-believers and Christians work together with the common goal of contributing to the security of our nation. The close relationships that grow out of these situations may offer opportunities for Christians to share spiritual truth. Many times they have been used by the Holy Spirit to draw people to Christ. Nonbelievers think of the chaplain as one who is “paid to talk about Christ.” They […]

The Role of the Chaplain

[…]employ different ways tof sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. If your chaplains are doing things differently than you assume should be done, look deeper into their operation with an open mind. You may learn something from the Lord that you didn’t know. You should not assume that you will be assigned a Christian chaplain. The U.S. Constitution provides for the free exercise of religion — and not just the Christian religion. So you may have a chaplain who is not of a Christian faith group, and you have no warrant to complain if that is the case. But whether […]

Unity of Command

[…]belongs to a unit back home and is therefore under that unit commander, but he’s TDY to a training unit (let’s say Army) in preparation for deployment to Iraq or Afghanistan where he’ll be under the command of the deployment commander. Who is his commander–the original unit commander, the training unit commander or the deployed area commander? He’s under all three, but only one at a time when he’s under each commander’s authority. UOC in action is an awesome testimony to our country’s democracy. For example, while we participate in multiple deployments, our political system peacefully chooses another CINC. There […]

With the Love of a Clanging Cymbal

[…]Christ with him had I first discovered the betrayal he was facing? In error, I believed that by pointing out his sin he would logically want to repent for it. Mahatma Gandhi, a leader of India who championed nonviolent civil disobedience, is quoted as saying, “I like your Christ; I do not like your Christians.” His problem with the Christian faith isn’t Jesus Christ—it is us. I proved Gandhi right that afternoon with my troubled friend.  There are times when we need to stand up for the faith and proclaim the message of the Gospel in a clear and direct […]

Time, Talent, Treasure: Retirees

[…]power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come” (Psalm 71:18). Involved in OCF “everywhere we were assigned,” and starting an OCF “if there wasn’t one,” when the Vaughns located to Columbus, Ohio, they started an outreach to ROTC students at The Ohio State University.  The OCF local leaders provide guidance for the student-led Bible studies-and an occasional home cooked meal- while also mentoring cadets and midshipmen one-on-one. Gwynn Vaughn first heard of OCF while attending the Army-Navy banquet, and later led Bible studies as a West Point cadet, attended OCU conferences, and was at Spring […]

Time, Talent, Treasure: Academies

[…]Bryan served on OCF Council, and along with Ward Graham and Eric Robyn on several Regional Training Conferences. Ministry in the highly charged academy life world involves scores of activities, including Bible studies, mentoring and discipling, and retreats, mission trips and mission trips. Abundant portions of fellowship, food and fun freely flow through the ministry settings of USNA’s Maranatha Mansion and USMA’s Fellowship House. Tom Austin, Bryan Burt, and their USAFA and USCGA counterparts’ collective ministry efforts rely heavily on their faithful teams of volunteers to make ministry happens. Such “force multipliers,” as Tom calls them, are also long serving, […]
