The Homefront Devotional: Navigate Military Life with Courage, Hope, and Faith

When Tara McMullen said "Yes" to marrying an Air Force fighter pilot, she knew she was stepping into a life of unpredictability, sacrifice, and separation. From constant relocations to long stretches apart, military life quickly proved to be more than just a job--it was a way of life. "I had to put my career on hold, raise our kids far from family, and continually rebuild a sense of community," McMullen reflects. But amid the unique challenges of military life, she found an unwavering source of strength: faith.

In The Homefront Devotional: Navigate Military Life with Courage, Hope, and Faith, McMullen offers heartfelt wisdom and grace that sustained her and her family through deployments, moves, and the uncertainties of military service. Drawing from scripture, the lives of the saints, and the Catechism, she shows how faith can be a steadfast anchor amid the shifting tides of military life. "Our roles as military families can make us stronger Christians, and our faith can make us better military families," she writes, offering hope and encouragement to those walking a similar path.

Each chapter tackles a milestone military families know all too well and provides spiritual guidance for navigating challenges in areas such as:

• Identity
