As with anything in life, it is difficult to understand all the different contributors to a decision, but in the next few posts I will try to explore some of the reasons that led my wife and I into this ministry. They all revolve around the uniqueness of chaplaincy.
Reason # 1: Unique Influence
God has placed the United States in an extraordinary position of influence in our modern world. The military sees itself as and in many ways is the guardian of the ideals of our country. If there is a strong Gospel witness amongst the guardians of the core values of the country, that Gospel witness will trickle down. I became a Navy chaplain because of the strong strategic potential for Gospel witness in this land and the world.
