This is episode seventy in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW2. In this episode he brings us into the daily slog of the Allied infantry as they make their way across the French countryside. With the momentum of D-Day at their backs, who would have guessed that the next month would be so difficult and so taxing. Often, Christians are surprised by the enemy’s resistance and they underestimate his will to fight. The Allied perseverance through this slow-moving and harrowing slog in June and July of 1944 is an inspiring picture of the perseverance needed in our souls as Christians right here and right now.
