Jeremy Stalnecker & Jeff Struecker
Can you be a Christian and kill the enemy in combat? Black Hawk Down Army Ranger Jeff Struecker has been asked this question a lot in interviews and in this episode of March or Die, he gives his answer to Jeremy Stalnecker.
Jeff Struecker survived the 18-hour Battle of Mogadishu, outnumbered 100 to 1 with no air support, no armor, and no way out. He was 100% certain he would die that night. But instead of fear, he had supernatural peace. When the battle was over, hardened Rangers were waiting to ask him about Jesus.
Jeff went from elite Army Ranger and special operations operator to military chaplain, and now serves as a senior pastor. In this conversation, we unpack his faith journey that started at 13, the battle that changed everything, the Christ-and-combat question he’s answered thousands of times, and what it looks like to march when everything in you wants to quit.
