  • Summary

  • Today we're diving into an incredible journey of faith, service, and the military spouse experience with our esteemed guest, Beth Runkle. Beth, a devoted military wife of nearly 27 years, has weathered the storms of loneliness, frequent moves, and the unique challenges that come with loving someone in uniform. In our conversation, we unpack how Beth transformed her initial resentment toward the military into a powerful mission of faith and community-building. Alongside her husband, she embraced the calling to support and guide other military couples through the same trials they once faced. After realizing the significant role her faith played in reshaping her life and marriage, Beth committed to leading small group ministries and retreats, aiming to strengthen other military families with the same guiding principles that salvaged her own. As they navigated the massive transition to post-military life, Beth and her husband decided to extend their service, dedicating five more years to active duty, savoring the fulfillment of influencing others to trust in God through their service. Now, working full-time with Crew Military in Colorado Springs, they continue to touch lives on bases across the nation. Beth also relates her personal struggles, from grappling with the idea of leaving her marriage to finding parallels in her life with the biblical story of Sarah. Her journey led her to author "Another Move, God: 30 Encouragements for Embracing Your Life as a Military Wife," a reflection of her experiences bolstered by scripture. So, as we prepare to delve into these stories of faith, service, and commitment, let's embrace the Decision Hour — and get ready to be moved by Beth Runkle's extraordinary tale of love, resilience, and the power of community.
