"Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men."
- General George Patton Jr.  War Memorials

On Veterans Day 1996, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund unveiled a half-scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., designed to travel to communities throughout the United States.  "Bringing The Wall Home" to communities throughout our country allows the souls enshrined on the Memorial to exist, once more, among family and friends in the peace and comfort of familiar surroundings. The traveling exhibit, known as The Wall That Heals, allows the many thousands of veterans who have been unable to cope with the prospect of "facing The Wall" to find the strength and courage to do so within their own communities, thus allowing the healing process to begin.

In like manner, we must bring the healing of Jesus to the wounded Christian soldiers.  Let us go to where they are, both physically and emotionally, and see healing released in their lives.  Let them not suffer one more day alone.

"Barbaric Christians see Jesus differently than civilized Christians. They see disciples differently, and they see Christ's mission differently. The Barbarian Way is a call to escape "civilized" Christianity and become original, powerful, untamed Christians-just as Christ intended."  The Barbarian Way by Erwin Raphael McManus
