Hey Mark and Brad, I E-mailed you my vote for the podcast theme song, but just in case you didn't get it then here it is: "Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue" by Toby Keith. I really like it.

Hello! My name is Jocelyn Green, I’m a former military wife and author of Faith Deployed: Daily Encouragement for Military Wives (Moody Publishers 2008). I wanted to tell you about the book so you could be aware of this new resource for the wives of your men. Visit www.faithdeployed.com for more information. If you are interested in seeing a copy of the book yourself, please let me know.
The book was written by 15 military wives from every branch of service and has endorsements from many national military ministries. I hope you will help me get the word out about both the book and the Web site as we support the women who support our troops the most.
Respectfully, Jocelyn

Turns out he tried to kill himself three years ago and was in a coma for 10 days, but lived. His story was heartbreaking. I prayed to God, ...

We were on a long road trip from Texas to NC in a rented U-Haul truck towing a VW van, being brothers and discussing life. The question of Jesus came up. We talked about the Bible and the history and hipocracy of the church, intelligent design, ethics, the resurrection, historical reliability of the Bible and the fairness of God. Steve asked the question, "If Jesus is the only way to heaven, then what about the guy whose never heard living on a mountain in Nepal?"

I thought about his question for while and decided that I wouldn't give him the seminary answer. I decided I'd give him the answer that I beleive Jesus wanted me to give. I ...
