Army Chaplain

I Tim Ice, am excited to announce that I have been accepted by the U.S. Army to be a Chaplain candidate in the United States Army. What that means is I am going to be a Lieutenant, and when I finish school be a Chaplain. Until I finish school I am considered a Chaplain Candidate, which means I am basically waiting, not able to be used yet because I do not have a masters. So needless to say I am excited and just wanted to let people know about the future ministry that God has opened up for me.

Books I read reasontly

I have as most students been assigned some mandatory books to read this semester. I have read three books on preaching. Two book I read for another class taught that Christians can be demon possesed, and another with some weird views on what prayer is. Overall the preaching books were the best books I have read resontly. MacArthur's "Preaching" book is a book I would recomend. Secondly, I would recomend Calvin Miller's book on "Preaching" for a look at how to preach from narative passages. He is not concerned in that book with the Pauline epistles or other New Testament epistles that lend them selves to propositional preaching but with the parts of the Bible that are narative. If you are wanting to preach these two books would be a good combination for starting to understand homiletics.
