How does war shape a man?
The Vietnam conflict was long ago, but its impact lives on and the battles continue in the hearts and minds of the U.S. soldiers who were there. In the jungle heat, the sweat, and the blood they became men.
But today, over 40 years later, Vietnam is the land where these men become heroes.
Nominated for a regional Emmy® Award, By War & By God tells the traumatic, yet redeeming story of a small group of soldiers whose lives were forever shaped by war, but whose faith has led them back to Vietnam to love, serve, and care for the people of that beautiful land. Through first-person interviews, archival war footage, and present-day on-location filming, the stories of these amazing “Vets with a Mission” exemplify the good that can come from a handful of lives that are touched By War & By God.

In the words of Producer/Director Kent C. Williamson...
"In 2008 I made my first trip to Vietnam with an organization called Vets With A Mission. These Vietnam veterans have come home from war with stories that will make your heart stop. They survived, but the hell of war leaves its mark on the living...sometimes in the form of physical scars, and almost always in the form of mental scars."
"What's amazing about this particular group of veterans is their committment to reconciliation; between themselves and the people of Vietnam, between themselves and the land, and between themselves and God. The reason they return to that beautiful country is to love, serve, and care for the people there."
"These men have all been shaped by war & by God..."
