Cover, Move & Pray.
As Chaplains, ( and any Christ Follower) we may be sent by God into situations of crisis, danger and darkness Although under Gods covering and led by the Holy Spirit, is essential that the other team (i.e. other Chaplains) cover the team moving into danger.

Would he not say, We are MORE than conquerors; greater than what is happening in the world today?
