Excellent or Praiseworthy: A devotional to help military families stay connected during deployments

12 09 2007

A team from Campus Crusade’s Military Ministry recently kicked off a new online devotional for military families. The title of this online devotional/blog is “Excellent or Praiseworthy” and has been developed by the same people who are working on a Bible study for military couples that focuses on the difficult issues surrounding pre-deployment, deployment, and redeployment. The team held a few strategy/brainstorming sessions at First Baptist Belton with a handful of our military families in each of the deployment stages listed above. It was a very enlightening session which produced excellent feedback, experiences, and ideas on ministry opportunities for military families. I’m really excited to see the end result and have a copy for future use and reference. Until then, this online devotional should be an excellent tool for those military couples enduring long and uncertain deployments. If you know of anyone who would benefit from such a resource, please refer them to their website.
