Our Chapel was not open 7 days a week because there were not enough Chaplains. If you are looking for a ministry, there is a great need for Chaplains. Truck drivers are one of the least groups that Christian’s minister to. Even churches who almost sit next door to truck stops, disregard them. Compared to the number of “Full Service” Truck Stops there are few Chapels. You could say there are virtually none. And, even worse there are few Full Time and Volunteer Chaplains to staff them. Most of the Chapels are not open 24 hours or even 7 days a week. OTR Drivers are active 24 hours a day. With so few Chapels and Chaplains, that limits drivers to even have access to a Chapel, much less find one open. There are very few churches, even in rural areas that have room in their parking lots for a “big rig.” It is a much-needed domestic ministry. It lacks Chapels because there are so few Chaplains. Chaplains have to raise their own financial support. The lack of financial support means Chaplains, both Full Time and volunteer, need to raise their own support. Local church support, along with individual support, for this domestic mission is needed.

REV-IT-UP, Tales of a Truck Stop Chaplain is a collection of stories from the crossroads of saints and serial killers told by a chaplain who has served at a metropolitan truck stop since 2006. Sherry Blackman shows up again as a spiritual investigative reporter in this series of quick, graphic, gritty, and insightful tales of road warriors, those who serve them, and those who find themselves lost at different intersections of life. Stories that unveil the holy and the unholy, the humorous and the tragic, and illuminates a universal truth, that we all need and deserve to be seen, heard, cared for, loved, and nurtured. Truck drivers-some 2 million strong-bring us 7 out of 10 items we depend on and spend one-half of their lives behind the wheel traversing deserts, mountains, lone stretches, main arteries, and blue highways, delivering the abundant life that most of us assume will always be within a Walmart reach. Without this industry, our economy would be paralyzed. Yet, most of us go about our daily lives without acknowledging these brave kings and queens of the highway. Readers will reflect on their own stories and struggles, how we all haul our pasts and memories and hurts with us wherever we go. Through hearing these tales, we just might create a more compassionate, attentive, and kinder world.

This book was written as a result of many friends asking if I would be my experiences as a chaplain in writing. This book will give you an idea of the many problems a chaplain faces as he ministers to the soldiers and their families. As you read this book, you will feel the intense pressure that a chaplain experiences as he walks through difficult situations with hurting people. This book does not cover all the aspects of a chaplain's responsibilities. As well as helping hurting soldiers and their families through difficult problems, he spent many hours waling alongside the soldiers as they carried out their mission in protecting America. He had the opportunity to conduct worship service for the soldiers and their families. He had the opportunity to baptize new converts as they committed their lives to the Lord and then to lead them in spiritual growth. I hope this book gives you encouragement, if you have a family member in the Armed Forces, that there are chaplains present to walk alongside and support them in whatever their journey brings them. As you read this book, I hope that you will feel the joy that comes to a chaplain when he experiences the positive outcome of helping hurting people. This book deals with one chaplain's experience, but let it be known that he does not accomplish it alone. The chaplains are one family and they come alongside of each other to support the ministry to soldiers and their families.

In October 1943, twenty-seven-year-old combat infantry chaplain Israel Yost arrived in Italy with the 100th Battalion, a little-known National Guard unit of mostly Japanese Americans from Hawai‘i. Yost was apprehensive when he learned of his assignment to this unusual unit composed of soldiers with whom he felt he had little in common and who were mostly Buddhists. But this would soon change. For the next nineteen months at the front—from Salerno to Monte Cassino to Anzio to Bruyeres—Yost assisted medics, retrieved bodies from the battlefield, buried enemy soldiers, struggled to bolster morale as the number of casualties rose higher and higher, and wrote countless letters of condolence, all in addition to fulfilling his ministerial duties, which included preaching in the foxholes. Although his sermons won few converts, Yost’s tireless energy and concern for others earned him admiration from his fellow soldiers, who often turned to him as a trusted friend and spiritual advisor. Forty years after the war had ended, with the help of his field diaries and the letters he had written almost daily to his wife, Yost wrote of his wartime experiences in the hopes that they might one day be published as a record of the remarkable character and accomplishments of the 100th. Combat Chaplain presents this heartfelt memoir intact. with the addition of photographs and subsequent letters and speeches by Yost and other veterans.

The Complete Handbook of Christian Chaplain Ministry is the "go to" book for anyone called or curious about being a chaplain or even going into Christian ministry. Unlike other books on chaplaincy that focus on particular institutions (hospitals, prisons, military, etc.), this book focuses on equipping people for the Christian ministry aspect of chaplaincy: how to help others like Jesus would. In these pages, readers will be motivated and challenged to pray and read the Bible more while also increasing their faith in God. Yet, it will also equip them to do Christian counseling, win spiritual warfare, perform funerals & weddings, become knowledgeable about CPR and First aid, how to relate to other cultures, what to do in a crisis situation, and so much more.

"COVID-19 thrust chaplains-especially those in healthcare-into the national spotlight as they cared for patients, family members, and exhausted and traumatized medical staff fighting the pandemic in real time. That spotlight, like COVID-19, was new, but the work of chaplains was not. I step back from the spotlight in this book to ask who chaplains are, what they do across the United States, how that work is connected to the settings where they do it, and how they have responded to and helped to shape contemporary shifts in the American religious landscape. I focus on Boston as a case study to show how chaplains have been, and remain, an important part of institutional religious ecologies, both locally and nationally. I engage with scholarly literatures in sociology, religious studies, and organizational studies to contextualize these data. I encourage scholars, religious leaders, and educators to step back and look broadly enough that they can see chaplains and integrate their work into thinking about American religious life. Considering the work of chaplains and keeping it on the radar of scholars and religious leaders may be a source of continuing insights into the future of religious life in the United States"--
