[…]an effort to include your children in social activities. I’ve always been grateful for the many friends who, when Jerry was gone, made an effort to include me and my children in many of their activities. You cannot replace their father, but children (especially boys) can benefit from the contact and friendship of other Christian men. Sunday school and church programs can often help in this area. Be sure the father remains the central authority figure in your home. Major decisions, unless there is a time element involved, should always be referred to your husband, even though you may feel […]

[…]seen any of them. I’ll keep looking though! 8. Do you have any friends in Iraq?I have lots of friends here. Many of them are people I came here with when we left Hawaii. Many of them have children in school just like me. I hope they are getting letters from their son or daughter’s classmates like I did! I also have made some friends since I got here. They are Iraqi people who want to help us win the war. I’m very lucky to meet some of the great people of Iraq and become their friend. 9. Do you […]

[…]spent two years on a previous Coast Guard tour. I was looking forward to reconnecting with old friends, and was frustrated that Jocelyn seemed to want to monopolize my home time. If I had realized her Quality Time needs, I would have focused my attention on her first. Jocelyn: And then I would have been much happier for him to spend time with friends. I confess, I didn’t recognize Rob’s love language of Acts of Service either. Before we met I was fairly independent already, living on my own in Washington, D.C. But once married, I made a list of […]

[…]interested in them. Through these activities, and through the sharing that occurs between new friends, they’ll have opportunities to hear and understand the gospel. They’ll be more likely to attend chapel service with friends than to go off-post to church. The chaplain’s involvement with troops and leaders gives him numerous opportunities to live, work, play, and deploy with members of the command. He needs your support, friendship, and prayer to be fully able to meet the many demands he faces and to represent Jesus Christ faithfully day-by-day. You’ll be able to help him fulfill his responsibility to provide wise counsel […]

[…]other home office directors, and field staff are often on the road visiting OCF members and friends for God’s kingdom purposes. Larry and Bobbie Simpson, Puget Sound/Family Outreach, and Aaron and Joyce Zook, Fort Hood and South Texas. Nearly a half-million combined on-base personnel, two OCF couples, one awesome God. That is the OCF Centers of Mass ministry of the Simpsons and the Zooks. Aaron and Joyce’s 0700 hour finds them seeking the Lord together in prayer, while Larry is already mentoring an officer and Bobbie is making an hour-long drive to lead a women’s Bible study. Mike Tesdahl is […]

[…]senior year at a new high school—her third high school. And Ashley would leave behind her best friends. Uncertainty had flooded in, leaving in its wake a myriad of swirling emotions. Such is the military life. Many of you are facing multiple layers of uncertainty and the list is endless: Where’s my next assignment? Will I make the next rank? Am I on track for the next rung of the ladder? Will my spouse find a job? What school will the kids attend? Will they find friends there? Adding to that list of uncertainties are our contemporary culture’s changes to […]

[…]clearly a wartime moment, one of great poignancy for each of you and your families and dear friends gathered here. It is also perhaps one of great ambiguity since we do not really know how we, as a nation, are progressing in the Iraqi war, and yet recognize that you may well join it in just a matter of months. I am speaking of the ambiguity that normally exists within those uninitiated to the rigors, as well as the horrors, of war. It is an ambiguity that in part exists because you do not yet have an answer to the […]
[…]to God. DANIEL 3 The experiences here are those of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. They were friends of Daniel who prayed with him (Daniel 1:17-23). As Daniel closely observed these experiences of his three friends, he might have learned that a leader should: Vs. 8. Expect scrutiny. Vs. 9-12. Expect opposition to your faith. Vs. 13-15. Expect temptation of your faith. Vs. 16-18. Expect an opportunity to demonstrate the authenticity for your faith. Vs. 19-27. Expect justification by your faith. DANIEL 4 Vs. 2-37. Continued, respectful, honorable, diligent service to an ungodly superior, while not compromising important biblical commandments, can […]
[…]The boys are having a blast; dads, too. The sun feels good. Later that day, Brian and his new friends hang out, fish, and enjoy their afternoon. They have made some friends with the SC volunteer staff. Steve, Audley (a grandfather there with his grandson), Doug, myself and Ryan (SC guide) take a quick trip and climb up to Ptarmigan Lake, which is about 13,000 feet or so. We arrived at the top just as a storm blew in, temperatures dropped, and we witnessed some incredible cloud activity. Audley is inspiring, sets a fast pace. Awesome lake, crystal clear, cold […]
[…]age 23, to be with Him. Jon’s tragic death was certainly a horrible loss to his family and friends and to the Army and his country, for which he held so much potential. We may never know what Jon could have accomplished in an earthly sense. But we do know what he has accomplished in a spiritual sense. Jonathan Cameron Shine serves as a life-altering inspiration and motivation to live for Jesus Christ and serve others selflessly and sacrificially. Jon, I’m sure, would not want us to focus on him. He would much rather we focus on the Lord, giving […]

[…]action in Iraq, leaving behind a grieving wife, their baby, and other heartbroken relatives and friends. Despite her faith, and the support of family and community friends, Diana’s wounds—pain, anger, denial, and fear for her son’s young family—are profound, constant companions she will likely carry with her until her dying day. Death—and the separation that ensues because of it—is the curse of Adam’s sin. For Diana and her family—and countless families throughout the ages who have lost loved ones, particularly in combat situations—you can’t help but wonder, can any good come from such an unspeakable tragedy? However, it is in […]
[…]Gospel, Jesus tells us, “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” That illustrates service before self for all time. We pledge to lay down our lives for our friends, our nation. That’s what we do. In addition, according to Paul in his epistle to the church at Ephesus, chapter 6, verse 7, “Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men.” Yes, excellence in all we do-giving our all to each task toward performing to the absolute best of our abilities. By applying these values, as laid down for […]

[…]holiness. We have everything mapped out-our lives, our futures, those really annoying people, our friends, our school, and our God. We are so wrong. Yes, we know God personally, but we could never comprehend every facet of His personality nor know Him in the way that He knows us. There are still cool and different little rooms in every building here that I never knew existed, and it makes USAFA more exciting when I stumble across them. When I discover a true gifting in one of my friends that I didn’t know was there, it makes me happy! How much […]
[…]will be your shield and rampart. When we received the very sad news that one of his closest friends was killed, we were overcome more by compassion–rather than fear–for the new widow, and for Darren. Although we were thankful the call we received wasn’t about Darren, we grieved. Don went to Dover Air Force Base for the repatriation of the remains, and we attended the memorial service, and the funeral at Arlington. You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys […]
[…]or Afghanistan. Your family will again settle in a new set of quarters, kids will anticipate new friends and a new school, and wives will be searching for Christian fellowship. Some of you newly commissioned members are, or soon will be, beginning your marriage. Other members are, or soon will be, assuming increasing levels of responsibility in new assignments. For single members, new challenges and assignments may seem even more difficult. Without a built-in family support system that travels with you, you not only have the challenges of military life, but you may have to find a whole new set […]
