The Bible and the Badges: Blessed are the Peacemakers

By Janet Teague

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

Janet Teague has over three decades of serving in law enforcement. She is a retired sergeant with Montgomery County Sheriff's Department and now chaplain with MCSO and Justice Court JP1. She is a minister with assemblies of God, a co-pastor with faith-based Hope and Healing for Warriors Ministry, where she has witnessed astonishing recoveries and changes in lives that medicine would call impossible. The ministry is making a difference encouraging, supporting, and overseeing recoveries in the lives of our local warriors.

She has seen the dead brought back to life. She has felt God's loving hand during the moment lives have passed.

This book weaves spiritual truths together with stories of many encounters with the divine. God gave Janet a mission to minister. There are many things in these pages that will speak to your heart.

Hope and Healing for Warriors (https://hopeandhealingforwarriors.com) is a ministry that encourages and supports warriors to find strength, make connections, and change their lives. A faith-based support system sharing strength and recovery for military, police officers, first responders, and those who suffer from life-changing events (PTSD).

I want to dedicate this book to Jesus Christ. Thank you for your love and mercy. Your light and for using me in line with Your will and purpose.

I also want to dedicate this book to my amazing husband, Raymond Teague, my Marine sweetheart, and co-pastor for Hope & Healing for Warriors. A man who wears out his bibles and the man who is worth spending my life with, along with our daughter Nia Rae Teague.

To all the Warriors, Law Enforcement, Military and First Responders, Hope & Healing for Warriors family, and friends.

Acknowledgments

Starting in 2015, my husband, Raymond Teague, and I started a ministry: Hope and Healing for Warriors to help encourage and support warriors to find strength, make connections, and change their lives.

The time we have spent is worth every minute as we have seen the Warriors touched, healed, and their lives restored.

Being married to a veteran myself gave me a heart for these men and women who preserve our freedom and safety.

I want to thank and honor all the first responders, firefighters, ambulance personnel, law enforcement, pastors, and chaplains. There are many more working behind the scenes who served, and I am thankful for all you have done and are doing every day.

I would also like to acknowledge and honor Dana Maddoux Choate: Thank you for being my mentor. You helped me mature into the Christian I am today.

To Mary Masten Kirk, William Barnett, Pastor Tom, and Ora Ramey for believing in me.
