1996 Jeep Cherokee won't start

Hello. I have a 1996 Jeep Cherokee Country, 6 cyl, 4x4. I had been using the truck and there were no problems. Came home for 20 minutes, went back out and it will not start. It won't crank, let alone turn over. The battery is fully charged. I hear the fuel pump prime when turning the key. My beast has a habit of eating starters, even though it didn't give the starter 'machine gun sound', I still had it tested and it's fine. I checked the flywheel and pinion while the starter was out. I love my Jeep but there is always an issue with her every 6 months or so. Even had new trannie dropped in. Anyone have some suggestions?

Have you verified that voltage is actually making it to the starter?

Check connections at battery, starter, and battery ground to chassis.
