About

At Campus Crusade Military Ministry, our privilege and responsibility is to assist chaplains and commanders with caring for the spiritual well-being of troops and their families. We do this in many ways, but all focus on the gospel because “faith comes by hearing, and hearing comes by the Word of God.”

We seek to help every troop, every leader, every family member hear and receive the life saving message about Jesus. Identifying with Paul in the book of Romans, our “heart’s desire and earnest prayer to God is that they (military men, women, and families) might be saved.” Only in this way will they be truly ready, spiritually ready, to face the challenges which will certainly come their way.

Vision

Transforming the nations of the world through the militaries of the world.

Mission

To Win, Build, and Send in the power of the Holy Spirit and to establish movements of spiritual multiplication in the worldwide military community.

The Six Pillars of Military Ministry

Guiding us are six strategic objectives…the “six pillars of military ministry”… which describe our ministry today and point the way to where we are headed tomorrow.

• Pillar 1 - Evangelize and disciple enlisted U.S. military members throughout their military careers.
• Pillar 2 - Build Christian military leaders and influence our nation for Christ as a result.
• Pillar 3 - Stop the unraveling of the military family and provide Christ-centered solutions for those suffering from the destructive effects of combat trauma, and especially PTSD.
• Pillar 4 - Arm troops in harm’s way with spiritual resources. Provide Bibles and devotional materials to chaplains and directly to troops.
• Pillar 5 - Wage Christian outreach, discipleship and training on the Internet to military members across the world.
• Pillar 6 - Change continents for Christ. Train, equip and support indigenous military leaders as they build Christian ministries in their own nations.
