Summary "True Words for Brave Men: A Book for Soldiers' and Sailors' Libraries" by Charles Kingsley is a compilation of sermons and addresses tailored for military personnel, written in the late 19th century. This work aims to inspire and uplift soldiers and sailors, drawing upon Christian teachings and moral principles to instill courage and discipline. The collection emphasizes the virtues of faith, obedience, and the importance of a grounded moral compass in the face of life's challenges. The opening of the book introduces a sermon centered on the biblical figure of the centurion, praising his humility and faith in Jesus. Kingsley highlights the centurion's understanding of authority and obedience, drawing parallels between military discipline and spiritual submission to God. He reflects on how the centurion, a figure often associated with power and control, humbly recognizes Christ's divine authority to heal without physical presence. This foundational message sets the tone for the subsequent addresses, which will further explore themes of courage, moral integrity, and the profound connection between faith and duty that resonate with the lives of those in military service.
