Your enemies, the flesh, the world, and the devil, are trying to destroy everything they can in America today: the schools, sports, politics, the medical community, the police, the church, and even you. Now is the time to stand against these enemies and JOIN GOD'S ARMY. This means stop being a Christian "civilian," become a Christian Soldier, and PUT ON THE FULL COMBAT GEAR OF GOD as the Operations Order (OPORD), Ephesians 6:11, clearly instructs you to do. Yet, how are you supposed to know how the six pieces of battle equipment, listed by Paul, are supposed to be used correctly in spiritual warfare if you've never had to physically put on body armor or picked up a weapon to defend your country before? After all, less than 1% of the American population is serving, or have served, in the United States Armed Forces. Jim Wagner, a former soldier, shares his insights into the recruiting, training, schooling, and service of today's U.S. Soldiers, and compares them to the spiritual truths that will give new meaning to the ageless verse, Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

There's no "safe space" for you inside here. This is where you're going to face reality, and change for the better. In this great camp you liberal, politically correct, progressive, Millennials and Gen Zers will be presented with every major issue facing our society today, and be reeducated to think, act, and believe like a God-fearing, NRA card carrying, capitalist, conservative, Republican to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. But, before you have a toddler's tantrum if this very thought disturbs you, which I (your camp drill sergeant) know it does, you can do the Sun Tzu thing - "Know your enemy." If you want to win back the White House, Congress, and most of the governor seats you have lost, then you better know how your enemy thinks, their strategy, and the tactics they use against you. Think of this camp as your "cause" for gathering intelligence. But, then again, you may just find yourself changing your mind about everything you had previously believed in when you're released from here, and walk out of these gates.
