Ron Helle Bio

Ron Helle is a highly decorated career Marine officer who worked his way through the ranks, retiring as a Major after 22 years of service. If he looks familiar, that is because he is the twin brother of another Marine veteran grassroots writer, Roger Helle. Serving three years in Vietnam, Ron was awarded the Navy Cross and three Purple Hearts. Since his retirement from the Marine Corps, he has had a diverse career including private and contract security in Iraq. He has pastored two church startups, taught Scripture, and served in various ministry capacities, particularly to active-duty military personnel and veterans. His devotions emerge from his diverse life experiences. He currently resides in Houston, Texas, with his wife of more than 50 years, Lynne. Read Mark Alexander's profile of Ron, "The Heroic Helle Brothers."

Brotherhood

Jesus shows us that we need other men in our lives to pray together and seek counsel.

Fleece

The next time you are seeking God’s direction, throw out a fleece and wait for God to respond à la Gideon.

Overload

As Christians, we can find ourselves “overloaded” because we become workers before we become worshippers.

You Are a King?

“You say that I am a king. For this purpose, I was born and for this purpose I have come into the world.”

Ron Helle / March 22, 2024

Midterm and Final

How do we lose our first love? By getting so busy with “church” that we forget King Jesus, who has made us his own.

Flash Flood

Biblically illiterate Christianity is a house upon the sand, and the flash flood of today’s culture is rocking the foundations of the evangelical Church.

Walking in the Rain

Where do we find shelter from the storms in our natural and spiritual lives?

Ron Helle / March 1, 2024

Instant Replay

I see myself sitting down with the Lord and asking for His “instant replay” on any careless words I may have spoken.

Silent Treatment

If I am not keeping God in my thoughts throughout the day, my attitude and actions can be less than God-honoring.

Ron Helle / February 16, 2024

Line of Departure

It is possible to fear the battle ahead and turn aside from the line of departure.

Ron Helle / February 9, 2024

Reflection

Just as the moon reflects the light of the sun, we are to reflect the light of the Son.

Ron Helle / February 2, 2024

Cast Down

How does a child of God, a sheep in the hands of the Good Shepherd, end up with a “cast down” soul?

Ron Helle / January 26, 2024

Valley Low

What if I find myself going downhill instead of climbing to the higher spiritual pastures? Scripture tells us how this happens.

Ron Helle / January 19, 2024

Mountain High

God, in His grace and mercy, will periodically give us a “mountaintop” experience where He speaks clearly to us.

I should be forever grateful for the new lease on life I’ve been given and live a life worthy of the sacrifice that was made on my behalf.
