MARKINC's initial goal was to develop a resource that offers help and hope to these returning heroes. We quickly realized that preparing yourself and your family relationships for war-time separation greatly impacts the coming home from war transition.
Each of three interviews addresses a different aspect of war-time stresses: War and the Family, The Demons of War, and War and Marriage. The purpose of this faith-based resource series is to share the personal stories of individuals and families in the context of deployment; how they prepared for deployment, how they protected or rebuilt their marriage during deployment; how they deal with the recurring demons of war and how they transitioned back into their families after war.
These interviews are practical, transparent and moving reflections from career and non-career military personnel. Some of the conversations may be difficult to listen to but our goal is to represent several different levels of military commitment and life. We hope this three-part series will be a valuable resource that offers help and hope to our military personnel and their families who have sacrificed so much for us.
