Onward: Mission Briefs for Taking the Offensive in Your Faith in Bloomington, MN

Are you a Veteran who feels you've lost a small sense of identity after serving? A non-military family member or friend who wishes you could relate to the military more? Or maybe someone who simply loves hearing military stories and studying about it? Military service means a lot of things to a lot of people. It is a different culture steeped in many values including service, loyalty, perseverance, and even love. Still, although several of the same value traits are shared between military service and the Christian lifestyle, there's often an underlying, maybe unspoken, belief that a Christian lifestyle is too emotional or boring to have the same importance as military service. This devotional - or set of "mission briefs" - uses personal experiences, historical examples, and military doctrine to change Veterans' perspective on a life with Christ, connect civilians with more perspective on life in the military, and encourage everyone that having Christ as your Commander is the most important mission of your life.
