Thanks for this very useful clarification "Pastor-Chaplin" . Bless you sir

This video is a blessing and i love it !!! Best video ive seen on chaplains

I used to listen to Greg Koukl from Stand To Reason ministry. He has some strategies and techniques that are both non confrontational yet gets the person thinking.

Thank you for sharing this overview of chaplaincy with us. I came home last week asking, "What have I gotten myself into?" Last summer/fall, my big sister asked if I'd be interested in taking a chaplain's course with her. Her husband is a minister and continued his education and involvement with the church he now serves as associate pastor. I told her I'd think about it.... I did - intermittently - until we reached the end of 2023 and I felt this "tug" to go for it. I do not consider myself a religious person and never felt called to the ordained ministry - yet I have the desire to share Hope. There have been some delays in registering and beginning studies. And after my first in-person contact with the program administrator and other students - and getting the chaplain's creed and an overview of the chaplain's role - it began to dawn on me that this is no academic exercise: a chaplain is an ordained minister - just what I didn't feel I was called to be. So, I've tried to get more background this past weekend: studied my school's creed; looked up the etymology of, "chaplain"; learned about Martin of Tours - St. Martin; read some articles (Google) about the position. And I've continued to pray. So, it benefited me to see Chaplain Souci - a former pastor - give his overview of the role of a chaplain. And I thank you, again, for sharing this with us.

Tysm you are x plain everything so simple I’m in school for my associates in Chaplaincy and I’m in my last ministry class where I have to visit with mentors pastors and hospice etc.

I'm a crisis chaplain

Thank you for some great chaplaincy insight, as a chaplain myself, and knowing that the organisation is secular, makes it much easier for me as an ordained priest to help, and that sense of none godliness is definitely present, and the none religious which I estimate as the majority, I have to pastor, and spiritually support in a non religious way, and what I've found out is everyone irrespective of being religious or none religious are connection through their love of mankind and humanity (which is the second commandment anyway) though I keep this too myself unless I'm sure the individual is religious then a Christian.... Fascinating insights though, thank you...

I’ve been a correction officer for 10 years and the Lord has revealed to me that he wants me to become a prison Chaplin. Thank you sir for the information. Started my first year of school. I have a long road ahead but, I trust the Lord in all of this.

I'm looking at doing some chaplaincy in retirement (in a year or so.) Planning to serve first responders: police, fire, and EMS.

Very helpful

I'm a hospital chaplain...thank you sir
