Active listening and appropriate response is a crucial part of my ministry as a chaplain. As a community chaplain, all sorts of people contact me with questions and to talk about situations and concerns happening in their lives. It is very important that we are able to communicate effectively and the we understand each other well.
Active listening will help to provide a means of helping in situation that you might not otherwise be able to help in. It gives you a great opportunity to get information that may no have been shared any other way. It also help to hear the counselee out, and then provides you with a background upon which you will be better prepared to give accurate, targeted resources and information that may benefit the counselee and possibly change a life, solve a problem, or alleviate a pressing concern.
