More From John Gresham Machen

In the military we are always looking for ways to leverage up our forces. having greater communications and command and control over your forces than your enemy has over his is a force multiplier. having greater logistics capability than the enemy is a force multiplier. having better-trained commanders is a force multiplier. perpetual optimism, believing in yourself, believing in your purpose, believing you will prevail, and demonstrating passion and confidence is a force multiplier. if you believe and have prepared your followers, the followers will believe.
