Strength for Service is the devotional written specifically for those in service of others. First published in 1942, the volume went out of print in the 1950s as armed forces personnel returned home. Fifty years later, Boy Scout Evan Hunsberger discovered his grandfather’s well worn copy of the book and made an Eagle Scout project out of seeing the volume republished. Today, the revised book has been distributed to 400,000 service personnel of many denominations.

All over the world there are brave men and women fighting for freedom and peace, who are a long way from home and facing unpredictable and uncertain futures. Books like this one provide support and spiritual guidance, and remind these brave souls that it's not about the war, it's about the warrior. Anyone who strives to live a life of service will benefit from a book like this, especially when the going gets a little too tough and the odds too great.
