Description

Being a Chaplain offers a unique perspective on the role of chaplains in contemporary society. Contrary to common stereotypes, chaplains are a valuable resource to the Church, bringing expertise and experiences from diverse contexts.

Through the stories of 22 chaplains working in a range of settings, this book sheds light on the challenges and opportunities of chaplaincy. The final part of the book explores key themes, including multi-faith issues, core skills, and tensions that can arise in the work.

Ideal for chaplains, students, clergy, and anyone interested in understanding the role of chaplains, this book provides valuable insights into the experiences and expertise of those in this important ministry.
