Bridges to Healing
Spiritual Guidance for Combat Trauma Sufferers and Those Who Love Them
When John Blehm returned from Vietnam he was anxious to get on with his life. Three Purple Hearts and two Bronze Stars attested to his courage and will, but it was not enough to win the battle that raged inside and threatened to destroy his life. John’s struggle with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is told in his book “Angel of Death”. Now John and his wife Karen help others overcome this devastating enemy.
-Bridge to Healing (led by John) offers spiritual solutions to those struggling with deployment related stress or PTSD. It does this by bringing together insights of the medical and counseling communities with timeless Biblical principles.
-When War Comes Home: Christ-centered Healing for Wives of Combat Veterans (led by Karen) offers comfort and practical help to the wives of combat veterans suffering with the hidden wounds of war. Insights from the medical and counseling community are wrapped in Biblical principles and enhanced by the shared experiences of other military wives.
“The reality of war is that everyone gets wounded. Some wounds heal rapidly, but some last for a lifetime. The reality is that the wounds of heart, soul and spirit have a spiritual component that is not being adequately addressed. Despite the valiant efforts of many organizations and the commitment of billions of dollars to address these issues, there remains a serious gap-the faith gap”.
