Chaplaincy is an active force in the realm of ministry to a world that is hurting and needing a moment of empathy and an encouraging word of hope. In Essential Chaplain Skill Sets, author Chaplain Keith Evans lays the initial foundations of chaplaincy, its need, what it is, who can be a chaplain, and further develops the cornerstone of skills employed in chaplaincy. Essential Chaplain Skill Sets is an easy-to-read book that is full of practical tools and resources that chaplains of all ministry settings and experience levels can quickly utilize and master. The four main sections of the book are: 1) The Fundamentals: The Why, What, Who, and How of Chaplaincy, 2) Understanding Spirituality and World Faith Expressions, 3) Understanding Spiritual Needs Assessments, and 4) Bringing the Pieces Together. The fourth section is very practical. It includes eight real-life ‘verbatims’ of chaplain encounters. A list of additional questions have been included at the end of each verbatim that allow readers (individual or in groups) to evaluate how they may have conducted the encounter differently or not. "What you have with "Essential Chaplain Skill Sets" is a pastoral practitioner's guide to proven skills learned through compassionate care and competent practice. Keith is a pastoral clinician sharing out of his own experience and doing his part to assist his pastoral colleagues in congregational and clinical settings and building upon their own art of pastoral care. He is a pragmatic realist and a patient teacher. Thank you, Keith, for this good companion book for those of us on the journey of becoming better clinical pastors." - Rev. Mark Hart, DMin,BCC, ACPE Supervisor, Director of Clinical Pastoral Education, Baptist Health System, San Antonio, Texas" Evans draws from his in-depth experience in law enforcement and trauma chaplaincy in creating this primer for chaplains serving in any ministry setting. Evans covers key fundamental concepts for any chaplain to become more effective in their role, as well as discussing spirituality and world faith expressions, and how to master spiritual need assessments. He addresses what chaplains are, how they are engaged, what they look like, and what the initial outcomes can be as a result of their employment. He describes the importance of having well-meaning, devoted chaplains to help people on their spiritual journeys. In Essential Chaplain Skill Sets, Evans shares well-respected resources and learned lessons geared toward assisting any chaplain of any faith background in any ministry setting.

These 15 articles were chosen by Testamentum Imperium Founder Kevaughn Mattis with Michael G. Maness from among 163 articles published in the 2011 online journal. Each author was chosen for their expertise and decades of experience in the practice of pastoral care in their unique fields. How the practicality of grace applies in suicide, sex addiction, sexual assault, shame, hospital or prison chaplaincy, even in eschatology and forgiveness is covered by these veterans in the field. The articles touch a broad scope of affliction from physical to moral dilemmas. And part of the choice was not to find from the 163 those who see eye-to-eye. We desired to share the unique expertise. Each author is a weathered captain who has ferried souls across tumultuous waves of grief, confusion, self-control, and internal torment to a port of healing and peaceful victory.

Pastoral care and its theology get a gentle boost from some of the best in the business of caring for the soul. When a person hurts, they often look to God. Several pathfinders give new light from their specialties, each one speaking powerfully, uniquely, and artfully from decades of experience. Dr. Amos Yong’s article on disability forwards the amazingly helpful term, “temporarily able-bodied.” Greek Orthodox Dr. Vasileios Thermos and Roman Catholic Dr. Robert Fastiggi enlighten next to the powerful testaments of Professor Godfrey Harold on South Africa and Dr. Samuel Yonas Deressa on Ethiopia. Each weathered author contributes universal insights into the grace of our great God and challenges pastors throughout the Christian world to kindly consider the heart of the afflicted. These finely hewn stones can be used by anyone in the ministry to sharpen their serve. Mattis and Maness offer this third collection from Testamentum Imperium with a prayer that these will open new avenues of sensitivity to the hearts and souls of those in travail and aid those who are called by God to serve those in pain.

A central assumption of narrative spirituality is that the act of retelling the story of episodes of our lives can help us better see the larger Guiding Story that God dreams for us. When I can see my Guiding Story more clearly, I am better able to handle crisis and transition and better able to see my true purpose. Story Work/Story Play lays out a four-door method of spirituality that invites participants to explore their Guiding Story through four doors that correspond to the four parts of any story—a main character, a problem to solve, the power needed to solve it, and the action taken by the main character. The chapter for each of these four “doors” provides theological, psychological, and scriptural foundations for the narrative method and includes up to ten to fifteen “story work/story play” exercises the reader can use to practice the method. Each chapter also includes profile stories of real people who have discovered layers of their own Guiding Stories. The book ends each chapter with a Guided Visualization. The book’s final chapter explains how members of a “narrative circle” can use the narrative spirituality tools of this book to discern each one’s own unique Guiding Story.

From its early beginnings in military and hospital settings, chaplaincy ministry has spread to many areas of society, including such diverse venues as law enforcement, schools, disaster relief, and industry and business. Despite the growing presence of chaplaincy ministry in communities around the nation, relatively few primers exist that provide an introduction to chaplaincy ministry. This book is intended to fill that gap, providing the reader with information about how chaplaincy ministry got its start, the differences between chaplains and other clergy members, and the foundations of chaplaincy ministry. The roles and responsibilities of chaplains and the way they are selected, trained, and held accountable are outlined, as well as the unique methods and elements of ministry which are common to work of chaplains. Readers of this book will gain an orientation to chaplaincy ministry will both prepare them to begin serving as chaplains and to pursue more in-depth training and education in chaplaincy ministry.

Interdisciplinary Pediatric Palliative Care provides a uniquely integrated, comprehensive resource about palliative care for seriously ill children and their families. The field of palliative care is based on the fundamental principle that an interdisciplinary team is optimal in caring for patients and their families throughout the illness trajectory. The text integrates themes including goals of care, discipline-specific roles, cultural and spiritual considerations, evidence-based outcomes, and far more. It emphasizes the value of words and high-quality communication in palliative care. Importantly, content acknowledges challenging periods between team members, and how those can ultimately benefit team, patient, and family care outcomes. Each chapter includes the perspective of the family of a seriously ill child in the form of a vignette to promote care team understanding of this crucial perspective. This second edition is founded on a wealth of evidence that reflects the innovations in pediatric palliative care science over the past 10 years, including initiatives in clinical care, research, and education. Interdisciplinary Pediatric Palliative Care is appropriate for all pediatric palliative clinicians (PPC), including physicians, nurses, psychosocial clinicians, chaplains, and many others. All subspecialists who deliver care to seriously ill children, will find this book a must-have for their work. Advance Praise for Interdisciplinary Pediatric Palliative Care, Second Edition "This new edition is as much a testament to pediatric palliative care's remarkable evolution as a field as it is a quintessential playbook for providing the high-quality holistic and compassionate care that families with seriously ill children desperately want. Every page thoughtfully weaves together how interprofessional teams can contribute collaboratively to learning about and supporting the preferences, needs and priorities of the precious patients and families in their circle of care. It is a must read for all practitioners to enhance their palliative care understanding, appreciation and ability as a foundation for optimizing quality of life in practice." - Rebecca Kirch, JD, Executive Vice President of Policy and Programs, National Patient Advocate Foundation "This book offers a truly contemporary and comprehensive view of the entire field of pediatric palliative care. The focus on social determinants of health, cultural humility, and disparities in care could not be timelier, and the section highlighting conflict and conflict resolution should be required reading. The continued and purposeful inclusion of interdisciplinary clinicians in producing each chapter models the palliative care team itself-an approach in which all voices are necessary as we seek to provide the most compassionate care possible." - Rachel Thienprayoon, MD, MSCS, FAAP, FAAHPM, Associate Professor of Anesthesia, Medical Director, StarShine Hospice and Palliative Care, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center

Written from an evangelical perspective, the book covers the foundations of chaplaincy and surveys specific types of chaplaincy work.

They introduce students to important topics such as endorsement, placement, and the constitutional and legal parameters of such work. They also consider the person of the chaplain and the understanding of chaplaincy as Christian ministry. In the second half of the book, the authors bring together expert contributors to survey ten specific contexts for chaplaincy work, such as education, healthcare, the military, corporations, prisons, public safety, and sports, and they explore the future of chaplaincy. This book will be an invaluable resource for students of chaplaincy.

本地及世界教會出席人數下降，需要尋找新的出路。然而，在本地人口中，能參加教會或職場團契的人數很少。因此，無論在人數上、人生工作時間比例上、屬靈生命受挑戰上，職場都是接觸、牧養和信徒見證榮耀上帝的必要場所。 1974年洛桑公約開啟了全球教會宣教的使命。但2004年至今，洛桑第40文件共識教會須推動職場事工，在普世及華人教會卻未見成效。研究顯示，教會單靠主日學和講壇牧養無法影響職場信徒的靈性。職場差距仍然存在。 在國外，職場牧者（Workplace Chaplaincy） 已經成為延伸教會牧養到職場的新力量。在香港，職場牧者以教會及機構差派的牧者、雙職傳道人、平信徒領袖，以及以職場使命為中心的職場教會和網絡教會的形式存在，透過查經、分享、禱告、講座、同行、經驗分享和轉介專業輔導員等方式進行牧養關懷。全人關懷和臨場牧養、心靈關顧的牧養形式尚未普及。 本書三大特色： 1. 了解職場事工實況實務 ．五種職場牧者牧養模式 ．五種團契信徒參與程度 ．五種觀念（召命觀、教會觀、事奉觀、神學觀、牧養觀）對職場牧養關懷實況的互動影響 2. 明白牧養關懷方式及差距 ．探討教會牧者、機構牧者、雙職傳道人、平信徒牧者、使命教會、及網絡教會的演化原因 ．分析職場信徒參與度參差不齊的原因 ．比較不同牧養和教會觀之間的差距和空間 3. 邁向基督之全人關懷 ．提出完整的牧養關懷框架，以耶穌基督牧養為範式 ．介紹全人關懷（Holistic Care）和臨場職事（A Ministry of Presence） ．推動職場牧養關懷和職場牧者認證培訓 ｜作者簡介｜ 周志堅 Augustine Cyrill Chi-Kin Chow PhD， MDiv， DMin， MBA， BBA， FHKIM， FHKIOD， FRFP， CPC， MDRT 周志堅 是一名職場牧者（Workplace Chaplain）、雙職傳道人、香港中文大學市場學博士、及伯特利神學院教牧學（城市領導學）博士。 他畢業於中國神學研究院，香港忠僕事奉中心但以理學院職場宣教課程，曾擔任教會、機構、及職場牧養關懷工作十多年。 他是香港十大傑出青年，歷任國際性頂級銀行及保險公司保險高層管理。他創辦香港元宇宙教會（MetaChurch-hk.org）、心靈關懷研究社、及現任職場牧者牧養關懷協會（WorkChaplaincy.org）總幹事，推動職場牧者認証、職場團契培訓、督導下實習及團契支援。他的個人網誌常常發表職場牧養關懷文章。
