Sheridan’s Plays, Now Printed as He Wrote Them: And His Mother’s Unpublished Comedy, a Journey to Bath (1902)

A Chaplain Experience starts with Chaplain Reck’s spiritual journey to the chaplaincy, which is a true calling from the Lord. It explores God’s hand in the life and preparation of a chaplain. A chaplain has a unique perspective of tragedy, especially in war. Christians often make the statement that everything happens for a reason. We don’t always know the reason, but it does not negate the fact that there is one. There is no time where the Lord’s hand is more apparent than during tragedy, sacrifice, and suffering. The Lord’s power to protect us is incredible. A chaplain’s job is to deal with tragedy and crisis. The book is not a book of terrible and tragic experiences, nor is it a sermon. It is stories of how the Lord works within tragedy and leads us, protects us, and teaches us if we allow Him to. Chaplain Reck looks at tragedy from an eternal perspective instead of through the eyes of man. Most horrific occurrences have wonderful blessings that come along with them. The book may bring you to laughter, it may make you cry, and it may make you cringe as you read of the experiences included within the book. But, you will see the Lord’s hand and His love always at work, even when it seems He is not. Chaplain Reck’s hope is that you will enjoy this book and find hope in the wonderful and terrible experiences he has had and witnessed.
