INDIVISIBLE by TRAVIS THRASHER

INDIVISIBLE by TRAVIS THRASHER is the story of Darren and Heather Turner and their three children, whose originally happy family is not at all the same when Darren comes home from deployment in Iraq, where he has been serving as an army chaplain. It is a novelization of Indivisible, The Movie, and it is based on a true story.
It is the most amazing book, which opens our eyes to the reality of war and the tremendous courage that both those in the armed forces and those who are left at home need in order to cope. The raw emotions shown and the desperation of those who are trying to trust the Lord in horrific situations is shown throughout.
Darren and Heather start out knowing that the Lord has called them to this service, his to the soldiers who are going through hell on earth and hers to the wives who are struggling at home, especially those who have lost their husbands. Their faith is important to them, and they minister the truth of the Gospel in their various roles, but there comes a time of burnout when Darren comes home and is still ministering to those with needs. It seems as though their marriage and family life is over. His home coming is not the wonderful occasion to which they have been looking forward. He cannot let go of the horrors of war until eventually he is forced seek help for himself if he is to save his family.
As in all of life's experiences, it is only when we stop relying on our own strength, put on the full armour of God, and trust Him to see us through, that we are victorious over the attacks of the enemy.
The book is full of Scripture references and real life instruction in a story that really is a classic. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
