Show by KNEO Radio
America’s veterans need help, and Ricky Bonczek, a retired Marine, knows this better than most. Ricky served as a helicopter mechanic, and after leaving the Corps in 2016, he faced another battle: pain management. With compressed, bulging, and herniated discs in his spine, nerve damage to his legs, and numerous other points of pain, Ricky gave his all while serving America, but the recovery was extremely difficult. Today, Ricky is the Veterans Outreach Coordinator for the National Religious Broadcasters association (NRB). This coalition is a Christian outreach organization working to bridge the gap between veterans and the church. It connects churches to trusted partners and resources to build solid, trustworthy veterans outreach programs. Ricky has the heart for this work because he’s served time in the trenches with our great American warriors.
