The Soul of War

A family in Hawley and now a family in Wahpeton have been told this week that their sons were killed in Iraq, to prepare for them to come home, to prepare for their funerals.

If you have time this Memorial Weekend watch and listen to this slideshow called Travels with a Military Chaplain. It is narrated by the author, Captain Major John Morris. Morris is a chaplain major currently serving the Minnesota Army National Guard and co-creator of "Beyond the Yellow Ribbon," a program that serves to reintegrate National Guard members into society.

The slideshow is only part of this week's Speaking of Faith program "The Soul of War." You can listen to the program on public radio or online at your convenience. I love to listen to the program's playlist.

Maybe you can find answers in the words, the photos and the music.
