Nearer My God to Thee
Author: Linda Parker
Publisher: Helion
ISBN: 9781912866120
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Nearer My God to Thee examines the full story of the army chaplains who accompanied the airborne forces to all theatres of war between 1942-1945. The chaplains landed with their troops, by parachute and on gliders, mainly behind enemy lines, and shared the dangers and challenges of operations from North Africa, through Sicily, Italy, D-Day and Arnhem to the crossing of the Rhine. In the front line of allied action, the chaplains ministered to their men spiritually and materially, performing acts of courage, aiding medical staff, taking services in difficult circumstance and burying the dead. The book examines the role of the chaplains and their differing experiences. At least two died defending the wounded at dressing stations, several took over leadership of the men in the chaos of battle. At Arnhem chaplains became prisoners of war as they stayed to look after wounded when the allied troops retreated over the Rhine. Chaplains were present with the SAS in North Africa and in France. The book uses hitherto unpublished material including first-hand accounts and letters to tell the dramatic stories of individuals and the multi-faceted work of the airborne chaplains as a whole. Their story is an important part of the narrative of airborne forces in the Second World War.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
Are you walking in the victory Jesus purchased for you at the cross? Do you want a more intimate relationship with God? Are you willing to do what it takes to remove any obstacles in your spiritual walk? Author, Ginger Schievelbein, uses the basic steps outlined in James 4:7-8 to guide you through the process of healing and deliverance. She uses the gift of discernment of spirits and her ten years of ministry experiences to expand and emphasize the truth of these verses. This book is designed for individual or group study, and will teach you how to have more of God and less of yourself as you come near to Him. Ginger Schievelbein is a first time author who grew up in a typical Christian home. At the age of fifteen, she encountered God and received the gift of discernment of spirits. Since she did not fully understand the gift, she kept it a secret for ten years. Gradually, she began to share some of her spiritual experiences with the adults and children under her ministry. Ten years later, God asked her to step down from those responsibilities so that He could send more people to her for personal prayer and deliverance. This ministry has grown, and recently she became an ordained minister. She and her husband reside in Texas where she homeschools their two teenagers.
