SYNOPSIS
It could be your neighbor, your coworker, your son, or the woman sitting next to you in church. When combat veterans return from war, they’re often confused. They struggle to reconnect with their families; the cheering crowds and smothering hugs make them want to jump out of their skin; and sometimes they even long to return to the hell of deployment. What they’ve experienced in combat can radically change how they view themselves, others, and the world at large. They may have never seen so much hurt, suffering, death, and destruction, which leaves them questioning, “Where is God?” Dr. Tiffany Tajiri, a veteran USAF officer and board-certified clinical psychologist, has been in countless sessions with combat veterans and their loved ones and now shares powerful first-hand accounts, lessons, proven exercises, and biblical truth. Whether experiencing combat directly as a veteran or wanting to help bring healing as a family member, pastor, chaplain, or counselor, this book is essential. The emotional, psychological, and spiritual healing encountered applies to anyone facing harsh realities and uncomfortable questions and hoping to find peace again.
REVIEW
Pure Unvanished Truth!
If you or someone you love has war wounds, this book book will help you navigate the psychological & spiritual minefields that we call PTSD.
At one point those people couldn’t even get the help they needed. Just stacks of paperwork. I believe that situation has improved some!

When I was a hospice chaplain, I encountered a man who struggled with PTSD from Vietnam. He and I had seminary level conversations about Scripture. People made their assumptions about him. He was very transparent with me from day one. He said, “Matthew, I’ll let you know I drink some beer and smoke a little cannabis every day because it’s the only way I can keep from hearing the shots going over my head from Vietnam.” Thanks for sharing this resource with us!
