What does a chaplain look like? What images does the word “chaplain” evoke? Chaplaincy is diversifying more and more every year. Traditional images of a chaplain no longer hold true in many settings. Not only that; spiritual care is also taking on more expansive definitions, with what exactly a “ministry of presence” means differing from person to person and place to place. Where chaplains are trained, where the practice, how they practice, and who they are is shaping the field in ways previously unimaginable.
