Boot Camp. The starting point for everyone who joins the military. No one who signs up expects it to be easy. It’s not supposed to be. But everyone at some point during boot camp comes to the end of their own strength. It is at that point where a little encouragement makes all the difference. Resting in God’s Shadow offers encouragement specifically written for those in this especially challenging period of the military. Chaplain (Major) Jeffrey L. Brooks, U.S. Army Retired knows what he’s talking about, with 22 years of active military service. During that time, he served as chaplain at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, encouraging the men and women in boot camp to never give up on themselves or their dreams, keep a positive mental attitude, and give it their best. Since then he’s had a passion to write these encouragements into a book. This book is a collection of twelve devotionals, followed by a prayer book with spaces to record your thoughts. The devotionals in Part One correspond with the prayer book in Part Two. Concise and focused devotions fit into even the most rigorous training schedule. Whether you’re active in the military, or have a loved one headed to boot camp, this devotional is sure to provide just the right words of encouragement and Scripture.

Donna Rowlette is devoted to educating others on how they must go through a biblical transformation process to become Christ-like. Her mission is to inform Christians that Christ-like thinking must be intentionally cultivated. She served 25 years as a police officer and 20 years in the military (mostly as a citizen soldier). Currently, Donna serves as the Director of the Criminal Justice Information System for the state in which she resides. 1 Corinthians 3:6 (NIV) states, "I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow." When Donna was about to graduate from high school she felt hopeless. Fortunately, Donna had a high school teacher who saw something in her that she did not see in herself. The teacher enrolled Donna in a Summer at Notre Dame: Academic and Leadership Skills, a program designed to prepare young women to be successful in college. Although she was apprehensive, Donna attended the program and earned her very first college credit in Story & Film with one of her lowest college grades ever, a "C". That "C" was a seed planted in rocky soil but sure enough, God has been making it grow. Donna went on to earn an Associate of Arts in General Studies and an Associate of Applied Science in Criminal Justice from Catonsville Community College. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Technology and Management from the University of Maryland University College. Donna earned a Master of Science in Management from Johns Hopkins University and a Master of Arts in Ministry from Lancaster Bible College. If asked, Donna would enthusiastically state that her degree in management equipped her to improve processes while her degree in ministry equipped her to serve people. Today, Donna is a servant leader who loves to teach Bible study.
