The Chaplain's Tool Belt contains devotional messages that were originally written for and included in a chaplain's newsletter written for employees of a Christian-owned company. As the company chaplain, David Caringer wanted to use a stylistic approach that might be more easily accepted by young technicians, which led to the title of the book. The thirty devotionals, which the author calls "construction projects," highlight the process of sanctification, God's promises to humanity, the significance of various prophecies, and various other themes. Consider questions such as: - Will we deny ourselves and take up our crosses to follow Jesus, or will we seek to gain the whole world only to forfeit our own souls? - Will we be ashamed of Jesus and His words in this adulterous and sinful generation, or will we be in the world but not of it? - Why is the virgin birth of Jesus so important to each one of us? We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus to grow ever stronger in good works. Let us all push ahead with a new commitment to grow ever closer to our calling as we feed our spirits with God's word and share His message with the world around us.
