Master of Chaplaincy Lesson 4
*******************************
If you know a military chaplain in the military, interview them and discover what the military chaplaincy is like. If not, do some additional research on your denomination in the military chaplaincy.
Being former military have met many chaplains and working with the family programs exposed me to many things that Chaplains do. The Lesson spoke of suicide prevention training. The unfortunate issues that military is facing now during this conflict is a high rise of suicide and PTSD, which is an aid to suicide. The chaplains are taking on a great role in trying to prevent suicide. Unlike the Vietnam conflict and others the government has increased its role in preventing suicide of members who are dealing with mental issues caused by being in combat. Chaplains today are on the frontline of this as well as being there for moral support to families who are dealing with issues while the service member is on deployment. Chaplains take the role of humanitarian, spiritual advisor and counselor. I knew when I had a major issue while in the military I could always call my chaplain for help.
