...the compelling and poignant account of one woman's experience as
a chaplain on the edge of war. When Dr. Rachel Coggins received the
call to serve overseas, the Army Reservist left a comfortable
Georgia home to live in a harsh environment filled with challenge.
Assigned to a base called the Gateway, she welcomed military
members entering the war zones of Iraq, Afghanistan, and Kuwait and
then bid them goodbye when it was time to return stateside. In
between those times, Chaplain Coggins listened to the warriors-to
their fears, their worries, their heartaches, and sometimes, their
joys. She became a confidante to some, a comfort to others, and a
friend to still others. Chaplain Coggins offers a glimpse into a
world few civilians ever see. In retelling her experiences, Coggins
reveals the struggles that confront today's war-zone Soldiers and
their loved ones, struggles that are often hidden from most
Americans. What readers are saying: "What a great book I couldn't
put it down. I laughed, cried, imagined, thought, reflected, prayed
all at the same time" -Kathy Oldfield, seminarian "You bring the
war home and make it a personal journey, rather than some far away
experience in a country most of us don't even know." -Carol Glover,
Chaplain's wife "Compassionate, compelling and heart-felt ...rare
insight and much needed perspective." - Angela Marshall, Teacher
Rachel is an Army Reserve Chaplain and the wife of an Air Force
Chaplain. She holds a Doctorate of Ministry in Women's Studies and
is founder of Rachel's Well Ministry. She and her husband, Michael,
and son live in Arizona.
