  abstract: The church is called to provide clergy for the military. Seminaries educate and prepare students. But there are complexities, controversies, and criticisms. Many seminary and college professors have no experience in the military. Understanding these dilemmas, Paul Linzey and Keith Travis created a much-needed resource. They both have mentored hundreds of chaplains, pastors, and ministerial students. The result is a comprehensive book about serving as a military chaplain in the twenty-first century. Drawing from their experience as chaplain, professor, endorsing agent, and chief of Army chaplain recruiting, they provide a professional resource for anyone interested in ministry to people in the military. Their records, qualifications, and expertise combine to provide a comprehensive, passionate, and authoritative look at serving as a chaplain in today's military. The book is well-researched, true to real life, and up-to-date. It is unparalleled in scope.
