Military Devotion – Run the Race with Eyes on Jesus – August 15, 2025

Watch the Devotion Based on Hebrews 12:1-3 I’ve read the books, listened to your stories, and even stood on some of the training grounds where your blood and sweat have fallen. But I’ve never gone through it myself. I don’t know if I could have endured it 20-plus years ago. You don’t really know what you’re capable of until you’re in it. Whether it’s Ranger School, BUD/S, Green Beret selection, or another special operations pipeline, the graduates talk about reaching down into a deep, dark place...

Military Devotion – My Hero – August 8, 2025

Watch the Devotion Based on Hebrews 11:1-16 A friend recently shared a YouTube video with me. It was a speech given by Medal of Honor recipient SSG David Bellavia. When you listen to his story and his speech, you have to say about this man, “He is a hero!” Bellavia is a hero not just for what he did but for what he believes. He believes in honor, duty, and courage. He believes in God, faith, family, and country. Take some time to find that speech. And if you ever get the chance to tour a museum,...

Military Devotion – Set Your Heart Where You’re Headed – August 1, 2025

Watch the Devotion Based on Colossians 3:1-11 Whether you’re deployed, stateside, single, or managing life with a spouse and kids—military life demands focus. You know that distractions can be dangerous. The same is true for your faith. In Colossians chapter 3, the apostle Paul says: “Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God” (verse 1). That’s not wishful thinking. This is your reality. If you are in Christ, ...

Military Devotion – Give Us What You’ve Promised – July 23, 2025

Watch the Devotion Based on 1 Timothy 2:6,7; Luke 11:1-13 The mission of WELS Ministry to the Military is to make God’s Word and sacraments available to our actively serving military members and their families. Oftentimes, we can’t be in all the places our warfighters are serving. When they are underway or deployed, we train men and women to serve as Distinctive Religious Group Leaders or Religious Lay Leaders. We train them how to prepare and lead Bible study, how to prepare and lead worship, a...

Military Devotion – Busy, Messy Homes – July 18, 2025

Watch the Devotion Based on Luke 10:38-42 A busy home can be a messy home. When my wife and I are out and about and someone asks about our family and we share with them that we have five children (and a dog), they usually respond, “Five children! You must be busy!” Yes and no. Yes, we both have full-time jobs. Yes, we have five children, but one of them just got married, another lives in the Midwest, three will be in college, and most of the year we are empty nesters. But yes, we are busy. When ...
