Publisher's summary

As a special operations army commander, Jeff Tiegs anchored his life in the battlefield—and the Bible. He joined the 1st Ranger Battalion at age eighteen and retired as a Delta Force lieutenant colonel. Often separated from his wife and kids, Tiegs lost friends in combat but never stopped pursuing his enemies wherever they tried to hide.

What has kept him going, what guides him still, are stories — of David, the slingshot sniper who downed a giant, of a pregnant virgin bride, a rogue prophet, a betrayed liberator. To Tiegs, these ancient tales echo within every human story. He has followed them through holy lands and combat zones where he collected a few stories of his own.

In Where Have All the Heroes Gone?, Tiegs retells familiar Bible stories through the lens of a trained warrior. He weaves personal experiences and military exploits among the threads, inviting listeners to take their own pilgrimage through the front lines of faith.

Captivating Read

An excellent story of the author's personal war stories delicately interwoven with the Christian faith. Excellent balance between the two topics keeps the reader engaged. Highly recommend to fellow believers and veterans.

Amazing Correlations

Jeff Tiegs beautifully tied his experiences in the military to the teachings of Jesus Christ. I have not seen another book make the connections like Jeff did. I would recommend this book to anyone who has served, whether you believe in Jesus or not. Phenomenal!!

Could not put this down!

I listened to this all at once, I could not put it down. Hung on every word. Recommend to all, especially those who have seen combat, traumatic events, or those in jobs that put you harms way. Already bought copies for veteran friends & family.

Stories of Parallel

I learned so much from this book! Jeff’s war stories paralleled many Bible stories and, as a prior Ranger, I found it funny, enlightening, heartbreaking and eye opening in many ways. But what was most poignant were his connections and travels to the Bible and Holy Land— making intimate connections to the text, terrain and humanity of Christ Jesus- particularly YHWH! Must read!

“Let the redeemed of the LORD tell their story” Psalm 107:2

Courage equal to that summoned and realized in these war stories were required by the author to write this amazing work. I know him, we used to drive in to work together, and now I know him much better. This is a lifetime’s work, carefully and artfully structured to benefit the audience; then entertain.
Boss asked a question, and since I began reading a couple of weeks ago, I’ve gifted this book to close friends, my wife, daughter, and twin sons. I know they will answer his question with their lives, we all will, we all are. Our common vocation of seeking God through shared struggle becomes easier as we relate naturally through story telling. This is how God has designed us. We must try to answer this question aloud and unafraid.
