Twenty-two veterans take their own lives every day. The word 'tragic' only begins to describe the brokenness of this painful reality. Josh Holler, Marine Corps veteran and pastor, argues that veteran suicide is not primarily a problem born out of exposure to combat and PTSD, but out of a broken relationship between people and God. He tells some of the stories of men he has known and addresses the reality of the reason veteran suicide is such a problem.

INCLUDED ARE PRAYERS BY: Dr. Mark I. Bubeck, Dr. Neil T. Anderson, Brother Andrew, Nancy Leigh Demoss, Dr. Fred C. Dickason, Rev. Paul Estabrooks, Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer, Stormie Omartian, Dr. Ray Pritchard, Dr. Marcus Warner, and others. Newly updated to include an “Introduction to Spiritual Warfare” by Dr. Marcus Warner. The Bible is clear — from the moment we draw our first breath, WE ARE AT WAR. Satan hates us and wants to destroy us — because the Lord loves us. A supernatural battle is waging all around us and if you are not a warrior, you will be a casualty. Christians must face this battle head-on by learning to put on the full armor of God every day. If we are not equipped properly, we will wonder why we live such defeated lives. Satan is alive and well and "prowling around like a lion seeking whom he can devour." We must use the weapons that God has provided for us to do battle for ourselves and for those that we love. A Warrior’s Prayerbook is a clear and concise resource designed to help you put on the full armor of God. This book is filled with doctrinally sound prayers, written by great men and women of faith, past and present, that will help you be a fearsome prayer warrior in your spiritual battle. ENDORSEMENTS A Warrior's Prayerbook will be a great help to many and a service to the Body of Christ. Many will have never seen anything like these prayers. They should not only be a help to those who use them but also a wake-up call and challenge to many who never thought of warfare and practical praying against evil. Kathryn has done a great work in compiling, organizing, presenting, and publishing this book. Good art work. Great need. Great taste. DR. C. FRED DICKASON Author and Fmr. Systematic Theology Chair – Moody Bible Institute, Chicago “The Christian life is not a playground; it is a battleground.” Warren Wiersbe We’re in a battle every day. If we take seriously Paul’s call to “Put on the whole armor of God” (Ephesians 6:11), then we know that we need to pray. But how should we pray when we go into battle? My friend Kathryn McBride has helped us hugely by compiling A Warrior’s Prayerbook for Spiritual Warfare. The first part of the book contains prayers from esteemed Christian leaders like Erwin Lutzer, Mark Bubeck, Fred Dickason, and Brother Andrew, arranged in categories such as “Affirm,” “Resist,” “Renounce,” and “Prayers for Others.” The book also includes the full text of many Scriptures on spiritual warfare along with very helpful quotes from noted Christian leaders. This is the most comprehensive guide to spiritual warfare praying that I have seen. We need a book like this so that when the enemy surrounds us, we will know how to get in contact with the Captain of our Salvation. Read it and you will be better prepared to stand strong when the devil attacks you and your family. DR. RAY PRITCHARD Speaker, Pastor, Author www.keepbelieving.com

THIS BOOK ADDRESSES VITAL QUESTIONS CONCERNING ENDTIME EVENTS DEPICTED IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION AND THE CALLING OF WARRIOR-SPIRITED CHRISTIANS OF THIS GENERATION. We are right on the verge of devastating events that will create great fear and chaos throughout the world and especially in our comfort-seeking nation. These are end-time events that are quite mystifying but extremely critical for this generation of Christianity to understand. The mission of this book is to provide a clearer understanding of these times by looking at biblical prophecy through our 21st century eyes. It is intended to feed the warrior spirit within that Christian remnant who are aware of the tremendous challenges that lie before us and are seeking guidance as to what we are about to confront, and how to "be ready." Hopefully, this book will encourage many Christians who are discerning that troubling times are about to descend upon the United States, as well as the entire world, to begin preparing now. Those who have seriously prepared will be among the Christian leaders in the Army of God who will stand strong in the glorious power of our Lord in the midst of these catastrophic times. This in-depth study of the Book of Revelation is truly a serious field guide to help prepare Christian warriors for the great tribulations which will precede the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ to restore His kingdom on the earth.

On Being Love's Warrior is a guide to freedom. Many of our lives have been shaped by outside forces. We are told how we should look, what we should wear, what kind of car we should drive and what kind of life we should live. If we don't match up to other people's ideas of who we should be, we are made to feel worthless and inferior on the inside. We begin to control ourselves and punish ourselves, until we can become what the church, schools, and the media tell us that we should be. You are about to take a journey, as you explore this manual, into the most frightening place...into your own psyche and into the psyche of humanity. You will learn how you have been shaped and manipulated by many of our institutions. You will see the beauty of human kind and all of the ugliness of human kind appear right before your eyes. You will learn how you have been deceived into using your power to oppress others and pass on the sickness. You will learn about real religion and spirituality. You will learn techiques that will set you free.

Radical Two-Kingdoms theology would have us believe that God has created a divided world. It is a world bifurcated into two realms, one of “nature” and the other of “grace,” whereby the things common to believer and unbeliever are understood to occupy a distinct and autonomous realm, “nature,” while the things particular to believers are located in a separate, “higher,” “spiritual” realm, the realm of “grace.” Supposedly, the latter is to be kept unsoiled by contact with the natural realm, which then goes by the name of “the world.” The Christian as Christian is therefore only responsible for the realm of grace; but as human being, undistinguished from unbelievers, he is responsible to act in the realm of nature. By what criterion? Something that goes under the name of natural law. The crux of the issue is, the two realms have nothing in common, the better to preserve the spiritual realm from contamination from below. This may sound pious and spiritually pure, but it is in fact a recipe for human autonomy and nothing less than a betrayal of the Christian’s calling to pursue the kingdom of Christ in and through the work of everyday, “natural” life. For one day every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is King of Kings, Lord of Lords; and the glory and honor of the nations will be brought into His kingdom. This includes culture and politics, for there are no such Two Kingdoms. Radical Two-Kingdoms theology is therefore an invitation to a combination of escapism and humanistic political activism. It is a plague on the church which needs to be confronted at every turn. “Woe unto the preacher who does not sound the alarm when the Good News is attacked from within the church, when the Law is pitted against the Gospel, and when Christ's Crown Rights over all of life is disputed. Especially in this day and age when unity is elevated far above purity and when virtue signaling seems to be the order of the day, I am most grateful for this excellent contribution by Rev. Bret McAtee. This work robs the serious reader of every excuse not to stand up against a false and dangerous doctrine – one that is by no means a minor issue, but an assault on the Gospel of Jesus Christ itself. I am most thankful that McAtee has answered the call and dealt with the assailants, not with cheap rhetoric, but by biblically interacting with their own words” – Rev. Sacha Walicord

This book is a new translation of Paul?s Treatise to the Ephesians into Professional, Contemporary, American English, written for professionals who finally want a no-nonsense answer to the meaning of the significance of their life. It penetrates the ossified ?code language? of the Ecclesiastical, Medieval, British/Latin English that has obscured Paul?s essential message for four centuries. The book makes the case that Jesus, our heavenly Commander in Chief, has specially selected each of us to an apprenticeship to discover and accomplish a unique, carefully crafted lifework. His goal is to help us successfully achieve it, and in doing so earn the distinguished qualifications required for leadership in the honorable government of the future world He will found upon His return.

The medieval code of chivalry demanded that warrior elites demonstrate fierce courage in battle, display prowess with weaponry, and avenge any strike against their honor. They were also required to be devout Christians. How, then, could knights pledge fealty to the Prince of Peace, who enjoined the faithful to turn the other cheek rather than seek vengeance and who taught that the meek, rather than glorious fighters in tournaments, shall inherit the earth? By what logic and language was knighthood valorized? In Holy Warriors, Richard Kaeuper argues that while some clerics sanctified violence in defense of the Holy Church, others were sorely troubled by chivalric practices in everyday life. As elite laity, knights had theological ideas of their own. Soundly pious yet independent, knights proclaimed the validity of their bloody profession by selectively appropriating religious ideals. Their ideology emphasized meritorious suffering on campaign and in battle even as their violence enriched them and established their dominance. In a world of divinely ordained social orders, theirs was blessed, though many sensitive souls worried about the ultimate price of rapine and destruction. Kaeuper examines how these paradoxical chivalric ideals were spread in a vast corpus of literature from exempla and chansons de geste to romance. Through these works, both clerics and lay military elites claimed God's blessing for knighthood while avoiding the contradictions inherent in their fusion of chivalry with a religion that looked back to the Sermon on the Mount for its ethical foundation.
