Tune in to hear our special guest Ron share his thoughts about one of my Purple Thoughts!
U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Ron Breland (Ret.) served in the United States Army from 1990 to 2005 as a DoD Certified Firefighter and a Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Specialist. As a third generation firefighter, Ron realized early on that his destiny was to serve. After serving 15 years in the military, including as a fire chief on 3 different continents - Ron retired only to go on training Military and First Responders. Ron now serves as a Chaplain through a unique Military Outreach Ministry; his wife’s 501 (c)(3) - Warfighter Ranch. This organization exists to help heal the invisible wounds of the heart, mind, and soul through Jesus Christ! A unique Military Artist, Ron uses parachute cord to reach out to over 20,000 Warfighters individually over the last 13 years. Ron believes each and every piece is "a sermon for one". Ron is the author of four books; most notably ”Ghost Nation – Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Society”, which he co-wrote with his wife, Helen, to offer different vantage points of PTSD and to help others understand this debilitating condition. The Breland's currently reside in Glendale, Arizona, have 5 children and 3 grandchildren!
