"I'm flying back home a wounded man. I didn't lose a limb and I didn't lose my life. I have no scars anyone can see. But I carry bags and bags of hurt and sorrow."
Darren Turner's calling to the military was for a specific purpose; to serve God and country as an army chaplain. He left behind a beautiful wife and three young children for an eighteen month deployment in Afghanistan. Confident that he was in the center of God's will, the weight of responsibility for those coming on and off the battlefield was a duty that he gratefully embraced; until he came home.
Heather Turner laments, "God, is he ever going to show back up?"
A moving story; depicting the realities of war, not only on foreign fronts, but on the home fronts that they leave behind. It is also a story filled with hope, for the mighty armor of God is a powerful piece of equipment.

BackCover Blurb:
Inspired by true events, Indivisible is a story of love, service, and finding each other all over again.
Darren and Heather Turner share a passion for serving God, family, and country. When Darren is deployed to Iraq as an army chaplain, Heather vows to serve military families back home as she cares for the couple’s three young children.
Darren knows he’s overseas to support the troops in their suffering as their chaplain. What he doesn’t know is how he will get through his own dark moments. And as communication from Darren dwindles, Heather wonders what is happening in her husband’s heart. Meanwhile, she’s growing weary in the day-to-day life of a military base—each child’s milestone Darren will never see, each month waiting for orders, each late-night knock on the door.
When Darren returns, he is no longer the husband Heather once knew. She is no longer the woman Darren wed. And so it’s at home that the Turners face their biggest battle: to save their marriage.
Based on the screen play by David Evans, Indivisible is a tribute to the beauty of serving our country, the courage of choosing love in the darkness, and the power of a God who never gives up hope.
(this is the novelization. Also available as a movie.)

Thanks for bringing this one to us, Rebecca. I hope the book is used for healing in ways the authors and those who inspired it can't have imagined.
