Life as we knew it has been disturbed, and that’s not a bad thing, says Lt-Colonel John P. Murray.

In the post-pandemic days ahead, the path ahead may feel uncertain. Now, more than ever, we need the guiding inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

At a time when the Army is faced with cries for change, the answers to such cries are found in unchanged practices that have been part of our tradition since its inception.

Brave spaces are those that welcome risk-taking, difficulty and controversy, while providing an opportunity for respectful sharing and listening to diverse individuals.

As we are faced with the reality of our mortality and life’s raw unpredictability, anxiety and fear can swell in strong, unexpected waves.

In a season when millennials—the generation born between 1981 and 1996—are leaving the church in droves, we need to start asking honest questions about why.

Over the past year, we have all survived a global pandemic. As we consider all we’ve been through, I’d like to introduce you to a Finnish word: sisu.

Let's not forget the lessons we've learned throughout the pandemic months.

We over-schedule, overstimulate and over-busy our kids all in the name of learning when, in reality, all that overstructuring is creating exactly what we are trying to avoid—kids with little-to-no imagination, creativity or basic life skills. One of the best foundations for life is to give kids the gift of white space, adventure and innocence.

In the midst of the ever-shifting and overwhelming, the rhythmic spiritual practices I developed over the course of three maternity leaves are the things I find myself leaning on most heavily in this season at training college.
