Redeeming Warriors: Veteran Suicide, Grieving, and the Fight for Faith

by Josh Holler

Twenty–two veterans take their own lives every day. The word ‘tragic’ only begins to describe the brokenness of this painful reality. Josh Holler, Marine Corps veteran and pastor, argues that veteran suicide is not primarily a problem born out of exposure to combat and PTSD, but out of a broken relationship between people and God. He tells some of the stories of men he has known and addresses the reality of the reason veteran suicide is such a problem.

After returning from two years of humanitarian work in Ukraine, I've grown a deep desire to see people who have served in combat enjoy life post deployment. It's still not an active part of my life yet, but I am grateful for this book as I look for ways to engage. It lays out the incredible struggles of war, war training, and suicide while grounding us in the reality that Christ redeems all things, and community is the foundation for healing. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in veteran care.
