First time in paperback, with a new Introduction and final chapter World affairs expert and intrepid travel journalist Robert D. Kaplan braved the dangers of war-ravaged Afghanistan in the 1980s, living among the mujahidin—the “soldiers of god”—whose unwavering devotion to Islam fueled their mission to oust the formidable Soviet invaders. In Soldiers of God we follow Kaplan’s extraordinary journey and learn how the thwarted Soviet invasion gave rise to the ruthless Taliban and the defining international conflagration of the twenty-first century. Kaplan returns a decade later and brings to life a lawless frontier. What he reveals is astonishing: teeming refugee camps on the deeply contentious Pakistan-Afghanistan border; a war front that combines primitive fighters with the most technologically advanced weapons known to man; rigorous Islamic indoctrination academies; a land of minefields plagued by drought, fierce tribalism, insurmountable ethnic and religious divisions, an abysmal literacy rate, and legions of war orphans who seek stability in military brotherhood. Traveling alongside Islamic guerrilla fighters, sharing their food, observing their piety in the face of deprivation, and witnessing their determination, Kaplan offers a unique opportunity to increase our understanding of a people and a country that are at the center of world events.

A revelatory account of the nouvelle thologie, a clerical movement that revitalized the Catholic ChurchÕs role in twentieth-century French political life. Secularism has been a cornerstone of French political culture since 1905, when the republic formalized the separation of church and state. At times the barrier of secularism has seemed impenetrable, stifling religious actors wishing to take part in political life. Yet in other instances, secularism has actually nurtured movements of the faithful. Soldiers of God in a Secular World explores one such case, that of the nouvelle thologie, or new theology. Developed in the interwar years by Jesuits and Dominicans, the nouvelle thologie reimagined the ChurchÕs relationship to public life, encouraging political activism, engaging with secular philosophy, and inspiring doctrinal changes adopted by the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s. Nouveaux thologiens charted a path between the old alliance of throne and altar and secularismÕs demand for the privatization of religion. Envisioning a Church in but not of the public sphere, Catholic thinkers drew on theological principles to intervene in political questions while claiming to remain at armÕs length from politics proper. Sarah Shortall argues that this Òcounter-politicsÓ was central to the mission of the nouveaux thologiens: by recoding political statements in the ostensibly apolitical language of doctrine, priests were able to enter into debates over fascism and communism, democracy and human rights, colonialism and nuclear war. This approach found its highest expression during the Second World War, when the nouveaux thologiens led the spiritual resistance against Nazism. Claiming a powerful public voice, they collectively forged a new role for the Church amid the momentous political shifts of the twentieth century.

Take a roller-coaster ride of emotions through the life of a young soldier as he struggles to find purpose in his life. Journey with him as he comes face-to-face with death and disease, searching to understand why God had a special purpose in store for him. Discover how life took him to the very brink of complete hopelessness and how he came to find his purpose lying flat on his back in the middle of a major highway. Share in his incredible true stories of being rescued by God from being buried alive, facing wave after wave of enemy attacks, contracting a rare skin disease, and returning home from Vietnam only to battle a mysterious illness, while struggling daily with PTSD. Read about his painful journey to recovery and how he navigated through depression, discouragement, disappointments, and resentment to finally arrive in a place of peace, purpose, and meaning--a place where God wants for us all. Hopefully after reading about his amazing life in search for an understanding of purpose with the presence of God, you may realize that God loves you above all things, and he is with you in every aspect of your life. Trust in him for his faithfulness, his infinite wisdom, and his unfailing love. He will fulfill your purpose if you don't put any obstacles in his way. For that reason, he is donating all of his profits from the book to the Wounded Warrior Project and to the veteran's PTSD program. "You will seek and find me when you seek me with all your heart" (Jeremiah 29:13). Rick David, cowriter of A Soldier's Journey with the Presence of God

They read the same Bible and prayed to the same God, but they faced each other in battle with rage in their hearts. The Civil War not only pitted brother against brother but also Christian against Christian, with soldiers from North and South alike devoutly believing that God was on their side. Steven Woodworth, one of our most prominent and provocative Civil War historians, presents the first detailed study of soldiers' religious beliefs and how they influenced the course of that tragic conflict. He shows how Christian teaching and practice shaped the worldview of soldiers on both sides: how it motivated them for the struggle, how it influenced the way they fought, and how it shaped national life after the war ended. Through the diaries, letters, and reminiscences of common soldiers, Woodworth illuminates religious belief from the home front to the battlefield, where thoughts of death and the afterlife were always close at hand. Woodworth reveals what these men thought about God and what they believed God thought about the war. Wrote one Unionist, "I believe our cause to be the cause of liberty and light . . . the cause of God, and holy and justifiable in His sight, and for this reason, I fear not to die in it if need be." With a familiar echo, his Confederate counterpart declared that "our Cause is Just and God is Just and we shall finally be successful whether I live to see the time or not." Woodworth focuses on mainstream Protestant beliefs and practices shared by the majority of combatants in order to help us better understand soldiers' motivations and to realize what a strong role religion played in American life throughout the conflict. In addition, he provides sharp insights into the relationship between Christianity and both the abolition movement in the North and the institution of slavery in the South. Ultimately, Woodworth shows us how opposing armies could put their trust in the same God while engaging in four years of organized slaughter and destruction. His compelling work provides a rich new perspective on religion in American life and will forever change the way we look at the Civil War.

Spiritual battles begin in the mind. It's a person's spirit and mind that are closely related and work in tandem with each other. Our best defense in spiritual battles is the assurance of salvation in Jesus Christ. When a person has a confident belief they're a member of God's army, and because they trust Him, no other spiritual force can take that away. This book has been written for the Christian who's serious about taking control of their life and gaining an advantage over everything evil. The first part of the book defines what Spiritual Warfare is, why it exists, and how long we can expect to do battle. The second half of the book explains the seven Rules of Spiritual Warfare and how it can enable a person to recognize and formulate a viable strategy against evil. My reason for writing this book is to help guide you through the Spiritual Warfare that you've been born into.
