On the eve of Memorial Day a friend, the mother of a Marine, sent me this video. Now, just so you know where I'm coming from, I am a sucker for Memorial Day. I expanded upon this sentiment in a recent post at Beliefnet,com.  While the politics of war and hierarchical military directives can be a challenge for this outsider looking in, I find supporting that special breed of men and women who put their lives on the line in service of country to be a simpler task. That's why this video challenged my thinking and raised a number of questions for me, both as a Christian and a supporter of our troops.  

Questions like, what does it mean to share one's faith? How can/should a professing Christian navigate between a call to share their faith when operating in an environment where rules preclude it? Is it right to manipulate the meaning of words to make our actions outside the spirit of the law fit within the letter of the law? Would love to hear what you think...
