Fighting the Good Fight: John Cooper On Christians In Military Service, Just War Theory, and Standing Firm

Oh boy! MORE John Cooper! This is the other half of our conversation. If you haven't gone to listen to our other episode with John on the Afghanistan crisis, you're missing out. But in this episode we get a little more broad. We discuss Christians in combat roles and what to make of it. The Godly Grunts mission is to Make soldiers better Christians and Christians better soldiers. John talks about how exactly we can understand war and combat from the Scriptures. Tune it!
