“WALK OF A SOLDIER” - Military, Veterans and Family Outreach Guide Compiled From A

     The book provides scholarly narratives in examining author’s adventures in founding two military outreaches and leading Veterans for Christ, the multi-award winning military personnel outreach organization in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas that gained attention from both U.S. President’s Barrack Obama and Joe Biden.


    The guide first focuses the cadet’s life before serving to get a clear understanding of temperaments, lifestyles and passions to construct a focal point guide towards the individual’s core values and beliefs. Then using those core values as a guideline as the military trains the individual towards life in the service and then finally discharged. One personal example is Mr. Johnson, being a native of Baton Rouge, La., raised in a very high at-risk neighborhood where shootings, liquor and drug abuse was common being accepted into the Marine Corps. He later found out after being discharged that most of his over-arching problems came from the neighborhood he grew up in. His return to his former neighborhood complicated his life more with old issues returning in force including trying to be accepted back into his social circles.


     Passionately driven to publish this guide to help others created by his personal and professional experiences, Mr. Johnson started compiling doctorial studies from Harvard, Yale, HBUs, Veteran Affairs; testimonies from officers and enlisted; studies with Christians and non dealing with cultural and gender issues in the military that Mr. Johnson found a thread that needs to be acknowledged and enact on.


     The book provides detailed experiences, ideas and firmly promotes collaboration between nonprofit organizations, local government agencies, and churches efforts that aims in enabling disenfranchised military communities across the country.

Rob Johnson has a great love for his fellow veterans, and for over ten years has ministered to the veterans of the DFW area through Veterans for Christ. This is a model for congregational support of the veteran community, that churches and conferences could learn from. Reports say 22 veterans a day are dying of suicide--ministries like VFC are critical in showing those who struggle compassion, understanding, and care.- Army Chaplain Major Bill Cork
