| Summary | "With Our Fighting Men" by William E. Sellers is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the experiences of Christian men serving in the military during World War I, highlighting their faith, courage, and the various religious initiatives aimed at providing spiritual support at home and on the front lines. It aims to present a comprehensive view of how Christian services and chaplains impacted the lives of soldiers and their spiritual journeys during the war. The opening of the book sets the stage for the backdrop of World War I, capturing the tense and emotional atmosphere as soldiers enlisting bid farewell to their loved ones. It discusses the initial chaos and excitement at military training camps like Aldershot, where religious organizations sprang into action, providing support and spiritual guidance. Sellers introduces the various chaplains and their dedication to ministering to the soldiers amidst the tumult of war, as well as the changing attitudes towards faith among the troops, who appear more open to spiritual matters as they confront the realities of battle. The text emphasizes the significance of the church's involvement during this tumultuous time and illustrates the strong sense of purpose and camaraderie among the soldiers.
