The Line Officer and the Chaplain

[…]the first time–the reality of the Christian faith that they have “tuned out” in church or chapel for years. As a line officer, you can understand the problems of your military comrades as one who participates equally with them in their military duties.

They jump with airborne units, join those standing mid-watches, participate in twenty-mile forced marches, go along on night patrols, and spend time on the flight line. The best chaplains have a deep empathy for the challenges, problems, and victories of their units. Even […]
