Description
Book SynopsisIn Triumph Over Trauma, Gary Fisher and Jeremy Van Delinder provide a framework for recovery for those affected by moral injury and trauma.
The typical treatment for moral injury and trauma is medication and clinical counseling, and while Chaplains Gary Fisher and Jeremy Van Delinder do not disparage those practices, they have personally seen the power of faith, grace, forgiveness, and a supportive community for those in need. Fisher and Van Delinder’s experiences in ministry, military service and emergency services have revealed the necessary role of spiritual, emotional, and communal support in a person’s journey to recovery. Written for combat veterans, fire fighters, law enforcement members, and their families, Triumph Over Trauma supports those seeking to understand and overcome moral injury and trauma.
Triumph Over Trauma is unique in its emphasis on a person’s soul heath—something often ignored in the medical and mental health communities. Combat veterans, first responders, and anyone seeking to know more about the path to recovery will learn how to:
