The Vaughns also serve as Spring Canyon Advisory Council members.

Members: Cast your vote now for OCF Council

[…]helped me see my spiritual need. I accepted Christ as my savior as a 2Lt. What is the biggest challenge you see currently facing OCF right now? Our biggest challenge is mentoring, equipping, and encouraging officers—especially junior officers—to be bold but kind in ministering to a military community that is increasingly hostile toward Christ and His followers, even while it is desperately in need of the hope, love, and healing that Christ alone can provide. The associated challenge is ensuring that all OCF members, from cadets to retirees to associate members, see the necessity and value of personally mentoring, equipping, […]

The Wounded Healer

[…]my transgressions” (Psalm 51:1).  And sometimes suffering is simply the effect of living in a fallen world where evil can strike anyone. Yet none of the aspects of suffering limit God’s capacity to use pain in a redeeming fashion. Isaiah’s prophesy about the greatest Suffering Servant declares, “By His wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5). Jesus’ wounds and suffering are the venue through which we have been redeemed. Believers can rejoice because through our own lives, God uses the mystery of pain and suffering through which His eternal work shines brightly. After David came face-to-face with his scarred, miserable nature […]

How Should a Christian Live?

by COL Mike Tesdahl, USA (Ret.) This recent discussion, which took place online between a West Point Cadet and COL Mike Tesdahl, provides food for thought for young Christians as well as for those who are trying to be a resource. Letter From a Cadet (via email) To whom this may concern (I think it may be someone called Papa T?): I’m not really sure why I am writing this. Actually, as I write I am scratching my head wondering what I am doing, but I feel strangely led to do it, so here I am. I grew up in […]

OCF and Leadership

[…]so a more applicable term for us is leader. Military people understand leadership. Cadets at West Point know from day one that the mission of the Military Academy is “To educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character…” (italics added). The other U.S. service academies have similar missions. Lieutenants and ensigns from every commissioning source are primed to hit the ground running as leaders of soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines, or coastguardsmen.
