June 20, 2009: A wonderful book about a dedicated Catholic Priest serving as a combat Chaplain with a medical unit with the Marines in Fallujah. Written from the diary he kept during his time in Iraq.
The book will bring tears to your eyes and joy to your heart as it is a brief yet in depth glimpse as to wonders of the Divine Mercy of God for all of us. A book of comfort for parents to demonstrate the wonderful work US Military Chaplains do in combat and non-combat zones.Would be a great book for teens and youth ministry leaders to discuss and uncover the character building virtues to survive the spiritual combat of daily life.Reader Rating:

December 10, 2008: Recalled to active duty, Ron Moses reluctantly traveled into the desert to serve in the ongoing war of Iraq. Miraculously, Ron Moses returned to share his account. This journey is one that needs to be told not only of a man?s struggle to understand his purpose but of our beloved brothers and sisters who sacrifice while serving the country we love to preserve peace. Even if you are non-military and/or non-catholic you will relate to and appreciate what is genuinely shared by Ron Moses.
