“When he said that the Kingdom of God is spread out upon the earth, he was telling them that justice, goodness, peace, and all those things denied them by the elites of the world were not anyone’s exclusive possession but the inheritance of all people.”
George Tyger, War Zone Faith: An Army Chaplain's Reflections from Afghanistan

“This is the balance of possibilities and limits. The possibilities: reaching the top, hitting on a great idea, realizing a vision of justice and peace, or just getting through the deployment and getting home. The limits: an uncertain course, unstable footing, the dangers of this place, waning physical and emotional stamina. We have hopes, dreams, goals we seek to make real in our lives. We struggle with fear, loneliness, hardship. We must navigate the obstacles while keeping our sights on all that is possible.”
George Tyger, War Zone Faith: An Army Chaplain's Reflections from Afghanistan

“The meaning of whatever job or mission you are currently engaged in is determined by how you choose to do it, how you conduct yourself. This is the calling we make for ourselves day in and day out as we live our lives. It is the calling we all have to be the fully human beings we are created to be.”
George Tyger, War Zone Faith: An Army Chaplain's Reflections from Afghanistan
