For those providing homilies and prayers for those serving their Country, their families, friends and those who want to join in prayer with them. Ideal for those leading prayers for Remembrance Sunday.

Are you looking for prayers that contain insight and are written out of real life experience?

This structuring helps the reader join the recruits - in mind and heart - at the beginning of their military journey.

War Cries' is the first ever collection of prayers which reflects the faith experiences of Christians within a military context. It comprises 225 formal and informal prayers (from the Army, Navy and RAF, from civilian sources and other nations)) which are presented in 7 chapters, each of which exposes a different aspect of military life.

The prayers from 'War Cries' appear in a way that mirrors the military experience, beginning with the act of 'joining-up' and ending with post-conflict reflection. This structuring helps the reader join the recruits - in mind and heart - at the beginning of their military journey, to experience the frustration of training, the boredom of life at sea, the formality of the parade ground, the horrors of battle, the traumatic aftermath of war, and ultimately the desire for a meaningful peace. The collection also includes prayers of service families during times of conflict.

The Revd Dr Mark Davidson RN is a military chaplain with a background in practical theology, parish ministry, ecumenical community-building and mission. As a theologian, his passion is for finding theoretical and practical solutions to ecclesiastical and social problems.
