While serving in Iraq in 2007 as an Army chaplain, I found myself facing the greatest spiritual and emotional crisis of my life. I was faced with the harsh reality of war and found myself unable to emotionally or spiritually cope with this reality. I found myself questioning my belief in God, my faith and myself as a chaplain, a Soldier and as a man. This blog recounts my struggle towards recovery and how God has led me to the calming of my storm. It is my prayer that my story may somehow touch others, so they too may experience God's healing and experience the calming of their storms.
