Download or read book O Chaplain My Chaplain Man of Service written by Janelle T. Frese and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2006-07-21 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Janelle's grandfather dies in her arms, she sees in his eyes an answer to the undying question we all struggle with in life: Where do we go from here? By fate or by faith, she follows the mystery-of-the-eyes to find Chaplain Barber, the man who would save her from death's sorrow and change her life forever. Chaplain George Russell Barber is the last living chaplain from the D-Day landing on Omaha Beach, June 6, 1944. He survived Normandy's bloodiest beach battle, "I dug like it was only up to me. I prayed like it was only up to God. Together, we dug that hole pretty deep." He went on to march across Europe for eleven more months without a weapon. Armed only with his Bible and his faith, Chaplain Barber preached the gospel during the most dangerous war scenes of the European theatre in World War II, "There are no atheists in foxholes." One of the last of the red-blooded American boys, Chaplain Barber tells Janelle his life history like a Little Big Man of the Greatest Generation. From the cotton fields back home to the Horse Cavalry days, through three wars, the Space Age and the war on terrorism, his life of service grips the heart of the small town patriot and likewise spins the mind of the spiritually inquisitive. "The Bible has been known to stop a bullet, but that's not the only reason I believe." Through their conversations, prayers and meditations, Janelle and the Chaplain mix the secret ingredients for the recipe of the Red, White and Blue in you.
Download or read book Serving God and Country written by Lyle W. Dorsett and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In World War II, more than twelve thousand Protestant ministers, Catholic priests, and Jewish rabbis joined the Chaplain Corps. They were men of faith under fire. And they would charge straight into Hell to save the soul of a single soldier… Representing America’s three major religious traditions, volunteers from across the country enlisted as noncombatant commissioned officers to provide spiritual strength and guidance for those fighting men who never knew if they were going to survive. Armed only with Bibles, Torahs, and the tools of their holy trade, these men of God went wherever the troops went. They prayed over men about to go into combat on land, at sea, and in the air. And, most important and difficult of all, they guided fallen fighting men of every faith as they breathed their last, and gave up their lives in the fight against tyranny. These are the personal stories of some of the bravest and most selfless men who served with the armed forces. Many lost their lives or suffered debilitating wounds as they strived to keep the military personnel spiritually awake, morally fit—and prepared to make the journey from this world to the next without fear or despair, and with the trust of the Almighty in their hearts.

Download or read book Padres in No Man s Land Second Edition written by Duff Crerar and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Padres in No Man's Land is the compelling story of brave and deeply committed army chaplains who brought faith and courage to Canada's troops during one of history's most devastating wars. Tracing the growth of the Canadian Chaplain Service from its chaotic and controversy-ridden early days to its maturation as an efficient field force, Duff Crerar highlights both the role of the Service on the battlefield and the personal experiences of the chaplains. Refuting the widely held view that chaplains serving overseas were cloistered from front-line realities, Crerar describes the padres' experiences in camps, hospitals, and on the battlefield. He examines how they maintained their faith in the face of death and destruction, and explores the bonds forged between chaplains and troops. Padres in No Man's Land concludes in the postwar era with the decline of the chaplains' hopes for spiritual renewal upon their return to Canada - their dreams dashed not by the war, but by the subsequent peace.

Download or read book Memoirs Of A Chaplain written by Charles Wesley Pike Chaplain LTC (RET) U.S. Army and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written as a result of many friends asking if I would share my experiences as a chaplain in writing. This book will give you an idea of the many problems a chaplain faces as he ministers to the soldiers and their families. As you read this book, you will feel the intense pressure that a chaplain experiences as he walks through difficult situations with hurting people. This book does not cover all the aspects of a chaplain's responsibilities. As well as helping hurting soldiers and their families through difficult problems, he spent many hours waling alongside the soldiers as they carried out their mission in protecting America. He had the opportunity to conduct worship service for the soldiers and their families. He had the opportunity to baptize new converts as they committed their lives to the Lord and then to lead them in spiritual growth. I hope this book gives you encouragement, if you have a family member in the Armed Forces, that there are chaplains present to walk alongside and support them in whatever their journey brings them. As you read this book, I hope that you will feel the joy that comes to a chaplain when he experiences the positive outcome of helping hurting people. This book deals with one chaplain's experience, but let it be known that he does not accomplish it alone. The chaplains are one family and they come alongside of each other to support the ministry to soldiers and their families.
