An Anthology of Sermons to Warriors - ChapTalk
This anthology captures the collective soul of chaplains who daily stand before soldiers engaged in the ongoing War on Terrorism. They are messages spoken on the battlefield and on the homefront, captured in worship services or at memorials, whispered in a soldier's ear, or shouted above the din of a truck's engine. They are words spoken to soldiers at an opportune time, reminding them that God is still present and still sovereign. They are often words of comfort and encouragement, of strength and hope; but they can also be words that address the immense struggle of the soul in the midst of pain or doubt.

To the memory of the four chaplains of the United States Army Transport (USAT) Dorchester:
Chaplain Alexander Goode (Jewish), Chaplain John Washington (Roman Catholic), Chaplain Clark Poling (Dutch Reformed), Chaplain George Fox (Methodist) whose sacrifice in the icy waters of the North Atlantic on February 3, 1943, demonstrated the power of faith in action. This work is also dedicated to the thousands of clergy members in uniform who have followed in their footsteps to deliver sacred words of hope in the midst of war. They demonstrate the best of the sacred task we hold in common.
