While a growing body of research demonstrates that a ban on open service harms the US military and that trans service members make invaluable contributions, here we turn to the experiences of the service members themselves, hearing from them in their own words"--

DOWNLOAD EBOOKServing with Honor is a book about ministry, but more importantly it’s a book about a form of integrity sorely lacking in today’s “me-centered” church. While the focal point of Serving with Honor is discovering and reaching one’s personal calling and destiny, the how-to part will provide eye-opening revelation regarding several principles that modern-day Christians seem totally ignorant about. At times this book will hit nerves and touch many sensitive issues, but at all times the Scriptures form the foundation of this sorely-needed guidebook on serving God’s Kingdom with honor and reaching one’s personal destiny in the process. “Many people today are flight risks in their local churches. Quick to find greener grass, they forfeit their destinies for a feel-good, temporary solution to the pressure of balancing family life with ministry duties. In his book, Serving with Honor, Pastor Andrew Robbins calls the church to accountability for her actions. Andrew challenges us to not forsake the process that God is taking us through by aborting God’s overall plan for our lives. This book is challenging, convicting, and a great comfort to those of us who still believe in the local church.” -Pastor Randall Burton, Northview Church, Columbus, IN, Founder and President of Zebulun INC, and author of the book, River Rising

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA controversial call to put honor at the center of morality To the modern mind, the idea of honor is outdated, sexist, and barbaric. It evokes Hamilton and Burr and pistols at dawn, not visions of a well-organized society. But for philosopher Tamler Sommers, a sense of honor is essential to living moral lives. In Why Honor Matters, Sommers argues that our collective rejection of honor has come at great cost. Reliant only on Enlightenment liberalism, the United States has become the home of the cowardly, the shameless, the selfish, and the alienated. Properly channeled, honor encourages virtues like courage, integrity, and solidarity, and gives a sense of living for something larger than oneself. Sommers shows how honor can help us address some of society's most challenging problems, including education, policing, and mass incarceration. Counterintuitive and provocative, Why Honor Matters makes a convincing case for honor as a cornerstone of our modern society.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHow Do I Save My Honor? is a powerful exploration of individual moral responsibility in a time of war. When individuals conclude that their leaders have violated fundamental ethical principles, what are they to do? Through the compelling personal stories of those in the U.S. and British government and military who struggled with these thorny issues during the war in Iraq, William F. Felice analyzes the degrees of moral responsibility that public officials, soldiers, and private citizens bear for the actions of their governments. Examining the struggles of these contemporary men and women, as well as of historical figures facing similar dilemmas, the author weighs the profound difficulties of overcoming the intense pressures of misguided loyalty, patriotism, and groupthink that predominate during war.

Only a few officers ... are willing to do what it takes to get the results ... to "kick ass and take names later." Behind the reassuring smiles, gold badges and neatly pressed uniforms are twisted views and immoral actions. This book is ... about what goes on inside the minds of the officers who make the decision to cross the line in the name of justice."--Preface.

An honorable man may look like a lamb being led to the slaughter. He may look like he has just stuck out his chin for someone to hit. He appears this way because he lives by biblical teachings...
