Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

You check your phone before you're even fully awake. You do the time-zone math without thinking. You are a military family, and the waiting is its own kind of service.Whether you're a spouse holding down the household alone, a parent whose grown child just deployed, or a family member watching the news with your stomach in a knot, deployment asks something real of the people who stay behind. Until You're Home Again is a prayer companion written specifically for that experience - honest about the fear, generous with the hope, and never pretending that prayer removes real risk from a dangerous world.This book won't promise you a particular outcome. What it offers instead is language for the send-off, the long middle stretch, the hard nights, and the homecoming everyone is counting toward - plus a brief, respectful word for the families for whom "coming home" doesn't come.What's inside: - 12 full chapters of original prayers following the arc of deployment, from the send-off through reintegration- Dedicated prayers for military spouses, parents, and children - because everyone in the family carries this differently- Honest prayers for hard news, invisible anxiety, and sleepless nights- A closing chapter of short blessings for every branch and every kind of military family- A brief, careful word for Gold Star families, and a collection of well-known Scripture passagesWritten in warm, interdenominational Christian language that welcomes readers from every branch and every church background, this book treats military families with the honesty and respect they deserve - no easy promises, no glossing over what's hard.Perfect for military spouses and parents, care package additions, deployment send-off gifts, or a quiet nightstand companion for anyone learning to live in the space between goodbye and homecoming.
