The Devil Owns the Fence is a raw and redemptive spiritual memoir about war, fatherhood, and the quiet grace that refuses to let go. Written by Catholic combat veteran and father of five, Dr. Ty H. Wenglar, this book follows the soul-wrestling journey of a man shaped by battlefield trauma and carried-sometimes barely-by faith.

As a U.S. Army combat medic, Wenglar witnessed the darkest parts of the human condition in Afghanistan. But it was the slow unraveling after he came home-the silence, the guilt, the disconnection from faith and family-that nearly undid him. In these pages, he offers a brutally honest account of what it means to be a Catholic man who has seen too much, lost too much, and still dares to hope.

Through poetic narrative and candid reflection, Wenglar explores the tension between doubt and belief, masculinity and vulnerability, and the grace that meets us in the middle. The result is a memoir that refuses tidy answers but clings to truth-the kind of truth that bleeds, heals, and stays.

For Catholic readers, veterans, and anyone grappling with wounds both seen and unseen, The Devil Owns the Fence is a story of unfinished faith and unrelenting love. It's a reminder that even when the path is fractured, the Shepherd never stops walking with us.
