God Was Always Speaking, I Just Wasn't Listening: A Veteran's Journey from Suppression to Salvation

by Ben Duelley

Overview

He had it all-or so it seemed. A decorated Naval Officer, a devoted family man, and a respected leader.

But behind the uniform, the success, and the sense of duty, he was drowning.

Depression. Anxiety. Self-doubt. The weight of life pressed in.

Until a sunny day in September, the moment everything changed.

In this brutally honest memoir, Ben lays bare his deepest struggles-the unseen battles that nearly consumed him, the supernatural encounters that shattered his doubts, and the miraculous events that unfolded during a mission trip to El Salvador. Through raw storytelling and unfiltered truth, he reveals how he finally heard God's voice, and found purpose beyond the pain.
