The Better Chaplain Devotional: 45 Scriptural Considerations for Ministering In and Among the Military

By Canyon Shearer DMin

The military is no place for shallow faith. Yet, too often, our chaplains are sent into the fray under-trained and over-stretched. While the military harvest is difficult and treacherous, it is eternally rewarding for those prepared to reap it. The Better Chaplain Devotional equips our future forces with better chaplains anchored to the foundation of God's Word and the legacy of great chaplains of history-both inside and outside of the Bible-so that they are able to imitate those who have won great victories. If a student cannot rise above his teacher, then we must set high standards of faith, practice, and mentorship. Through forty-five core principles and a deep dive into impossible ethical dilemmas, this book encourages current and future chaplains to rise to their calling. Specifically designed for the front lines, these lessons also apply to every pastor, missionary, or believer intent on winning spiritual battles. Truly, the military harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few, and the stakes are eternal.
