Dr. Nicolas Ellen, Senior Pastor of Community Faith Bible Church, Senior Professor of Biblical Counseling at the College of Biblical Studies, ACBC Certified Biblical Counselor and Fellow
There are many challenges soldiers face as they seek to serve their country and serve their families. Being a biblical counselor who has had the privilege of serving various soldiers, I consider it a privilege to be a part of the Fallen Soldier March ministry. I have come to see over the years that the more one uses God’s word to help soldiers through their challenges, the more productive they are for Jesus, their family, and their country.
Throughout my college and seminary training years I encountered may men and women who were serving or were finishing their service in the military. I noticed that they had a discipline and commitment to excellence that truly amazed me. Obstacles were merely opportunities for them to work things through until the mission was accomplished.
As I begin to engage my military friends in more intimate and personal settings, I learned of their hurts, pains, sorrows and sufferings that needed to be addressed with more than just a hug and words of sympathy. With God’s training from His Word and His power I have enjoyed providing these various men and women with life changing insights that I have seen heal and transform them! I am looking forward to bringing that insight to the Fallen Soldiers March Ministry.
