Title: Perceived Strength 
 
The LORD is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one. – Psalm 28:8
 
How we perceive strength is relative. For example, have you ever watched those strong-man competitions on ESPN? You know, the ones where guys are pulling semi-trucks or flipping logs in the air. Their feats of strength are incredible to watch.
 
But have you also watched a friend go through the grueling task of rehab after a horrible accident? Have you watched him/her find the strength to take a step after being unable to walk? It’s not flipping logs…but it is strength.
 
As men, we are called to have the Lord as our strength. The character we are to exhibit and the faith we are to practice demand strength that is outside ourselves. Whether big or small, our strength is to come from Him.
 
Real men find their strength in the Lord.

Milo and his family currently live in North Carolina, where he is a staff Chaplain for MAG-14 at Cherry Point, NC. As a staff chaplain, he is responsible for the spiritual well-being of over 1200 marines and their families. He does this by participating in training events, deploying with the squadrons he covers, providing a constant presence of support and working with the command in facilitating general care and response in the face of family/unit emergencies.

Milo and Bethany have been in full-time ministry since 1999, and have enjoyed a wide variety of experiences and opportunities. In 2003, God brought Andrew into their lives, and in 2005 Olivia was the fourth addition to the family. Milo has stated repeatedly that God’s greatest tool in shaping his theology, philosophy of life and walk with Christ has been his family. Woodworking, riding his motorcycle, movies, camping, and time with his family are some of his favorite things to enjoy.
