Official synopsis Publisher
The success of military chaplaincy depends on the freedoms of its members to fulfill their calling from God. Matters of Conscience proposes that a chaplain’s ultimate allegiance must be to Jesus Christ. Otherwise, his commitment to the Constitution – and to those he ministers to – is disingenuous. Matters of Conscience explores the biblical foundation of servant leadership and Christ-centered worship “within” the chapel walls, then dives deeply into how theology can be applied during both peacetime and war to help those spiritually wounded by the effects of battle.
