God Understands
Comfort and Hope from the Scriptures

Armed Services Ministry invites you to explore the newly created God Understands online located at GodUnderstands.AmericanBible.org.  

This resource is based on the Spiritual Injury Scale used by Veteran Affairs (VA) chaplains to identify spiritual injuries expressed through feelings such as: anger, grief, doubt, guilt, fear of death, hopelessness, a sense that life is unfair, and or that life is meaningless and without purpose. The stories included closely examine real life situations of Veterans who experience such feelings, and are explored in combination with God’s Word in order to provide users with the tools needed to begin a positively life-changing journey.

Whether a Veteran, Military personnel or family member, God understands the common human thread that flows through your hopes, dreams and sufferings.  Discover that God understands now, and may the words of the God Understands series bring you hope, healing, comfort and encouragement.
