Reflections of an Army Chaplain

As an army chaplain for 30 years, I had opportunity to work with and serve as pastor of the world community of God’s greatest creation. I never felt called to be a neighborhood pastor though I loved it.


Reflections of an Army chaplain are just that. The book is a composite of written and resurfaced experiences and not always in chronological order. I apologize to the many friends who at varied stages of my development encouraged me to publish my thoughts. I further apologize for criticizing the many graduate and post-graduate level professors whose uniquely inspired presentations were not put in print. In spirit, for whatever justification, I was not ready until today. So, you get the whole load. Whoever you are, I love you in Christ. Thanks for sharing your time while permitting me to unload on you.


My goal is consistent: Respect our flag and Constitution for whom Americans have fought and died protecting; The Christian faith, at its core , not necessarily in its practice, is not the only world religion but the one, I believe has the best hope for establishing world peace; It is not intended as a scholarly masterpiece though it reveals respect for academia. Yet some scholarly works of academia may be the primary cause of contemporary tragic consequences. This book is inclusive of 79 years of living.
