Guiding Precepts
To be recited, remembered, and lived.
These precepts are how a Sacred Warrior walks — in reverence, in integrity, and in love — honoring the one true God and the divine light He set in every soul. Our Statement of Faith is what this church believes. This is how we are asked to live it.
The Divine Dwells Within
We honor the truth that the Kingdom of God is not distant but alive within every soul. We walk each day remembering that we are divine creations — whole, sacred, and never broken.
The Kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you. When you come to know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will realize that it is you who are the sons of the living Father.
Gospel of Thomas, Logion 3Awakening Is Our Mission
We gather to lay down the burdens of war and separation. Through communion, stillness, and service, we remember who we are, and we help others remember.
We are not broken men and women seeking repair. We are warriors carrying weight that was never meant to be carried alone.
The Sacraments Are Holy
We receive the sacraments as instruments of communion with God — never as recreation, never as remedy, never as commerce.
They are handled with reverence, received in prayer, and kept within the Fellowship.
Direct Communion Is Our Path
We seek God Himself, not a report of Him. No priest, no institution, and no intermediary stands between a soul and its Maker.
What we hold as doctrine is set down in our Statement of Faith. What we know, we know because we have knelt.
Service Is the Highest Honor
As warriors reborn, we serve with humility, courage, and compassion. Our strength is measured not by force but by love in action.
The oath did not end at discharge.
The Fellowship Is a Sacred Bond
We stand as one fellowship — veterans, first responders, families, and all those called, men and women alike.
We honor each other’s paths, guard each other’s confidences, and rise together. No one walks out of this circle alone.
Integrity Is Our Armor
We walk in truth. In our words, our actions, and our stewardship of the sacraments, we hold to honesty, confidentiality, and accountability.
What is spoken in ceremony stays in ceremony.
We Answer the Call for One Another
When a brother or sister is in crisis, we go. We do not wait to be asked.
We do not counsel beyond our calling. And we never stand between someone and the help they need.
Gratitude Is Our Practice
We give thanks for every breath, every lesson, every ceremony.
Gratitude turns pain into wisdom and reminds us that every moment is sacred.
Return Home
Every journey — in ceremony, in service, in ordinary days — is a call to remember who we are and to return home to God.
Purpose Reclaimed
Theresa interviews Mike Morgan, a thirty-year medically retired police officer and veteran, who found his ultimate transformation from a loss of identity and post-career depression through entheogens and psychedelic spirituality.
Mike shares his initial apprehensions when he first experienced the call, and his surprise at discovering a place within this country that could facilitate the journey. After his calling was revealed to him, he serendipitously met our founder, Matthew “Whiz” Buckley. Mike resonated deeply with Whiz and his mission, joining Sacred Warrior Fellowship to help end veteran suicide while leading others back to the wholeness he has found.
Precepts are one document among several
What this church believes, how it is ordered and led, and who stands at its front are all published in full.
Membership begins with a conversation
Every member of this church affirms these precepts alongside our Statement of Faith. That is not a formality, and it is why the first step is a conversation rather than a form.
These are not rules imposed.They are how we have chosen to walk.
Sacred Warrior Fellowship is a church called to remind our nation's heroes — and all those who answer — that God does not make imperfect things.
