She highlights the power of empathy, presence, and simply being available in moments of crisis or grief. Drawing from personal experiences, Ellis illustrates how ministry and chaplaincy are uniquely equipped to meet people in their pain, offering safety, compassion, and understanding.

Carlos Evans is the founder of C.R. Evans Ministries. Carlos was born in Puerto Rico, where he was an avid athlete throughout his high school and college years. At the university level, Carlos studied Theology and was very active in his church. It was during that time that the tragic events of September 11th occurred, and he felt compelled to join the family legacy of service in the United States Marine Corps -- and originally planned to join as a Chaplain.    Carlos served three tours of duty in Iraq and was assigned to Afghanistan for his fourth deployment. In May 2010, he was the squad leader on foot patrol when he stepped on an improvised explosive device.   The blast took both of his legs and his left hand. Medically discharged after his rehab at Walter Reed, Carlos served in the Marine Corps for eight years.  Carlos is now a minister with the Assemblies of God USA, a Wounded Warrior Spokesman, and a motivational speaker.   He and his wife, Rosemarie co-authored a book called Standing Together, an inspirational story of a wounded warrior and an enduring love.  They reside in Orlando, Florida, and they have two beautiful daughters.   If you'd like to contact Carlos or get a copy of his book, just go to his website at http://www.crevans.org    ----------------------     If you want to help us transform the lives of even MORE MEN for God's glory, please take a minute to leave us a helpful REVIEW on iTunes: http://www.rmcpodcast.com and SHARE this podcast with any young man (or men) you're mentoring or discipling.   Talk with Dr. Joe 1-on-1: Are you tired and stuck? Want to go to get your faith, marriage, family, career and finances back on track?  Then maybe it's time you got a coach.

Text a Message to the ShowToday we're talking to Rick James… no, not that Rick James.  Richard James is a chaplain with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police from the Vancouver, British Columbia area.  He is a former Canadian police officer and has been working in church ministry for several years.  He was also a police chaplain in New York State for some time.  Rick journeyed across North America and made a visit to my Kansas City studio part of his trip; at the time he held the record for furthest distance to visit me in person, but just a week after recording this, "Jake the International Security Specialist Guy" visited me from Thailand (Ep 117).  I had no idea the distance-traveled record would be broken so soon.Music is by Chris HaugenHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 120Tags:Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Chaplain, Gun Control, Firearms, Police, Reports, Training, Regimental Colors, Niagara, Regina, Vancouver, British Columbia, New York, Saskatchewan, CanadaSupport the showThanks for Listening!

Andy is once again lost at sea on a potentially Great lake, so "The Boys" jump in to recap the first round of the 2025 FedEx Cup Playoffs with Brendan! After an update from PJ on Don Rea's custom shoes for next month's Ryder Cup, Joseph LaMagna and Brendan dive into an eventful Sunday at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Justin Rose exorcised some playoff demons, defeating J.J. Spaun on the third extra hole at TPC Initech. Rose and Spaun locked up automatic qualifier spots for their respective Ryder Cup squads, but the main story was yet another Sunday collapse by 54-hole leader Tommy Fleetwood. Brendan and Joseph discuss Fleetwood's play on Sunday and Joseph shares some insight into an impactful course management decision that may have tipped some off to the impending collapse. Also of note, the Chaplain returned to Scottie's bag for Sunday and Mr. 1,000 shined again in one of the strongest fields of the year. There's plenty of chatter about the "Bubble Boys" of the FedEx Cup Top 50, as Rickie Fowler used his season of sponsor exemptions to cash a trip to Caves Valley, but Jordan Spieth is going home. As per usual this time of year, a lengthy Ryder Cup debate over Spieth's current status unfolds with Brendan playing the role of "public defender" for the four-time major champ. NBC's broadcast left a lot to be desired, worrying the trio about what's to come at the Ryder Cup next month. Elsewhere in golf, LIV had a double playoff at Bolingbrook, Megha Ganne won the U.S. Women's Am, and the President called in to congratulate the latest DPWT winner. After a brief Champions Tour Minute and a few news items, PJ convinces Brendan to give a statement on the Browns finding their franchise quarterback in Shedeur Sanders.

Welcome to this new series, “Something Psalmic,” in which I invite my guests to share what's lifting their spirits and offering them healing and hope right now.In this rich and moving episode of Psalms for the Spirit, I'm joined by Rev. Cheryl Meban ~ Presbyterian minister, university chaplain, member of the Corrymeela Community, choir singer, and faithful “walker of the Way.” Born during the conflict in Northern Ireland to English and Scots/Irish parents, Cheryl's journey has taken her from Belfast to the south of France and back, guided always by the reconciling love of God.We talk about the psalmic thread woven through her life: from singing in choirs to walking alongside students, from moments of isolation to the strength found in community and scripture. Cheryl shares how Psalm 27 has grounded her through times of fear, challenge, and feeling unseen. We reflect on the healing power of breath, voice, and memorized poetry ~ and how singing together lifts us, literally and spiritually, into connection and courage.“Sometimes being in community with your past self is part of the story… knowing how God has held us and helped us in the past is part of holding us in the present.”This episode is a reminder that the ancient words of the Psalms still echo powerfully today ~ offering us solace, strength, and a sense of belonging, even when the way ahead feels uncertain.Cheryl's Bio:Conceived in the loving heart of God, born as a youngest child to English and Scots/Irish parents in the sectarian conflict of Northern Ireland, a follower of Jesus, ambassador of Good News and God's reconciling work in the world. I graduated in Law, which I abandoned for the transforming power of Grace; lived 5 years in France, returned to NI in peace process; was trained and ordained a minister of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland. After marriage and the birth of my only child, I became a Chaplain at Ulster University in Belfast, and more recently joined the dispersed Corrymeela Community,, where I lead monthly Corrymeela in the City in Fitzroy Church in Belfast. I'm a walker of the Way, happily accompanied by a small dog and a loving network of friends and family across faiths, denominations and nationalities (but particularly francophile). I do love singing especially in a choir - it incarnates breath and exhales wellbeing, lifting spirits and strengthening the brokenhearted.Connect with Cheryl through her social channels:FacebookX (twitter)InstagramFeatured Song:Psalm 27: The Lord is My LightThe air ‘Down in Yon Banke' is originally a wordless Scottish country dance song, and in this rendition becomes a prayer for God's eternal presence.Learn more about the Habits for the Spirit Course www.kiranyoungwimberly.com/habits-courseGet involved with “Summer for the Spirit” www.kiranyoungwimberly.com/summerDownload your free guide here: “7 Spiritual Practices for Wellbeing in Uncertain Times”Become a Supporting/Paid SubscriberYou'll get:* Complimentary access to the Habits for the Spirit course* Videos of the conversations in Substack* The Psalms for the Spirit Journal ebook* Invitations to future offerings for supporting subscribers throughout the yearPsalms for the Spirit is a reader-supported publication.

Are you in a painful place in your life today? Do you feel like the wheels are coming off? Do you feel bitter toward God?Whenever you feel God may be far from you, whenever you feel the wheels are coming off in your life, choose to praise God. The worse it gets, praise God. And mathematically, God has to draw near because He always inhabits the praise of His saints. Don't question Him, don't curses him. Praise Him. And He will draw near to you in. In your worst pain and in your worst moment, you can make it your finest hour if you'll praise God.Then use that comfort you've received from God to give your life away. Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians 1:3-6"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer."Jerry Leachman of ⁠⁠⁠Leachman Ministries⁠⁠⁠ is a favorite speaker at The Center's events. Along with being an associate Chaplain in The NFL for many years, Jerry has done ministry in Guatemala, Scotland, Russia, Europe and Africa as well as all over the U.S. He and his wife Holly have been on Young Life Staff and continue to be involved with Young Life here and also internationally.

The Way of Jesus- Jesus' teachings and life come together as an example for us to follow.

“Uncle Joab” was the most famous preacher in the West for a reason ... and that reason was pretty much exactly why the pioneer lawmakers found him to be such a lousy fit for the job of Chaplain of the Legislature. Suddenly they were desperate to get rid of him. But, they'd hired him before his salary was in the treasury....

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What's your spiritual story? In this heartfelt episode of God: An Autobiography, The Podcast, Dr. Jerry L. Martin sits down with hospital chaplain Rosemarie Proctor to explore a life of evolving faith, profound loss, and deep spiritual wisdom.Rosemarie's journey began in a strict Catholic upbringing, where fear-based teachings about heaven and hell shaped her childhood worldview. After decades of spiritual disconnection, it was the sudden loss of her husband and an unexpected prayer from a local minister that opened the door to healing—and brought her back to faith through the Episcopal Church.At 85 years old, Rosemarie shares her transition from grieving widow to spiritual comforter, offering insight into how she became a hospital chaplain despite never intending to walk that path. In one of the episode's most moving moments, she recalls the 9/11 chaplain's prayer—a guiding force in her ministry: "Lord, take me where you want me to go, let me meet who you want me to meet, help me say what you want me to say, and get me out of the way."Jerry and Rosemarie also discuss:How meditation and gardening helped her rediscover the divineHer experience with Reiki and insights into Eastern spiritualityWhy God: An Autobiography affirmed her long-held belief that God sets different paths for different peopleThe idea of a personal God who is evolving through relationship with humanityWhether you're religious, spiritual-but-not-religious, or simply curious about the many ways people find meaning, this episode invites you to reflect on the turning points that shape our spiritual lives.Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay ConnectedShare your thoughts or questions at questions@godandautobiography.com

When the Legislature of the new state of Oregon started looking for someone to serve as the state's first Chaplain of the Legislature, Uncle Joab's name naturally came readily to mind. But it wouldn't be long before they wished they'd never even heard of this plain-speaking, long-preaching circuit rider....

As the NFU hosts an on-farm water summit, we find out more about an innovative project in Shropshire to manage water. It aims to prevent excess run-off from urban areas which floods farmland and destroys crops.Out and about with the Agricultural Chaplain for Suffolk who's helping farmers cope with the pressures of running a farm business. He says they're especially concerned about changes to inheritance tax reform.Scientists are working with farmers to find a high-tech way of tackling one of the most voracious pests farmers face - slugs. Traditionally, producers have used ferric phosphate pellets to kill them, or taken a more expensive but eco-friendly route, using nematodes to eat the pests. Now the British On-Farm Innovation Network or BOFIN for short, is using artificial intelligence as part of a "Slimers" project to work out where slugs are hiding.

Join the Veterans Breakfast Club on the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army Chaplain Corps, Monday, July 28, at 7:00pm ET for a special livestream conversation about the extraordinary life and enduring legacy of Father Emil Kapaun, U.S. Army chaplain, Medal of Honor recipient, and Servant of God now on the path to sainthood. Our guest will be Ray Kapaun, Father Emil's devoted nephew and family spokesperson, who has spent decades gathering stories, preserving memories, and promoting his uncle's legacy of faith, sacrifice, and service. With deep personal insight and moving anecdotes, Ray will share not just what made his uncle a great chaplain, but what made him a saintly man—and why his story still resonates powerfully today. Born in 1916 in the farming community of Pilsen, Kansas, Emil Kapaun grew up working on farm equipment and studying for the priesthood. He was ordained in 1940 and joined the U.S. Army Chaplain Corps during World War II, serving in the Burma-India Theater. But it was in Korea, during the early months of the Korean War, that Father Kapaun's heroic ministry made him a legend among soldiers and prisoners of war alike. Assigned to the 1st Cavalry Division, Kapaun was known for celebrating Mass from the hood of a jeep, riding his bike from unit to unit under fire, and fearlessly ministering to troops in foxholes. During the Battle of Unsan in November 1950, he repeatedly braved enemy fire to rescue the wounded. When given the opportunity to evacuate, he refused—choosing instead to stay behind with the injured and surrender alongside them. He was marched to Pyoktong Prison Camp in North Korea, where he spent the last seven months of his life tending to sick and starving fellow POWs. He stole food, built fires in secret, offered prayers, washed clothes, and lifted spirits—risking severe punishment each time. Fellow prisoners credit him with saving hundreds of lives through simple acts of compassion, courage, and faith. He died in captivity on May 23, 1951. For his heroism, Father Kapaun was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor in 2013. His military decorations also include the Distinguished Service Cross, Bronze Star with “V” Device, and the Legion of Merit, among many others. In the Catholic Church, Father Kapaun is now known as Venerable Emil Kapaun, a title bestowed by Pope Francis in 2021. This designation—the second step in the four-step canonization process—acknowledges that Father Kapaun offered his life in an act of heroic charity. The Diocese of Wichita continues to investigate reported miracles attributed to his intercession, the next step toward beatification and eventual sainthood. Ray Kapaun, who will join us for this VBC Live program, was just a boy when he began hearing stories about his uncle. Over the years, he's met and stayed close with the soldiers who knew Father Emil in life, including the few remaining POWs who spent time in that North Korean prison camp. His efforts helped bring his uncle's remains home in 2021—70 years after his death—and laid to rest at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Wichita. Ray sees Father Kapaun as more than a war hero or Catholic martyr. He sees him as a model of human compassion—someone who looked past creed, rank, or politics to serve people simply because they needed help. “He just always put everybody else ahead of his own needs,” Ray says. “He gives hope… He saw the soul in people.” This livestream will be a heartfelt exploration of that legacy. It's a story of service beyond self, faith under fire, and the power of simple kindness in the darkest of places.

NFL Indianapolis Colts Chaplain, Ken Johnson, has inspired the Colts players, coaches and staff for over 30 years. Ken has been called a thermostat, because when he enters a room, he cranks it up a notch. Ken has great experiences as an athlete, a Chaplain, a former police officer, a military veteran, a husband & father, among other things.While Ken has spoken for huge audiences and at thousands of events, he has learned over the years, that speaking from the stage has its limits. Ken has realized over time that if you want to truly and deeply impact a person's life that real and lasting impact is made off stage.Ken has wisely withdrawn from speaking to masses and has focused on going deeper instead of broader. He's learned you become isolated from performance based ministry. It's when you slow down, give your attention to one or the few that beautiful relationships are built with a smaller amount of people. And making impact relationships takes time and effort.Now Ken preaches the phrase "Dream Big. Start Small. Go Deep."Listen as Ken shares great stories and testimonies with Brett and about how so many hidden and unseen people are the ones who make the biggest impact for good.

His tool aims to bridge the gaps left by existing methods and emphasizes the significance of spirituality beyond organized religion, offering a fresh perspective on maintaining combat readiness and preventing further harm.      We explore the metaphorical rebar and heartwood as symbols of the spiritual and emotional strength that service members need to endure life's challenges. Chaplain Belcher sheds light on the critical role of spiritual foundations, especially for those from disadvantaged backgrounds, and how they contribute to personal and unit resilience. He shares practical advice for military commanders and medical professionals on preparing themselves and their units for the uncertainties of military life. Through personal stories and experiences, we uncover how maintaining one's core beliefs and unique identity can fortify resilience amid adversity.      Our conversation also addresses the profound impact of personal values like compassion, particularly in medical crises where chaplains play an essential role. Chaplain Belcher illustrates the importance of a multidisciplinary approach, integrating spiritual care with medical intervention, to offer holistic support to those in need. His firsthand experiences highlight the invaluable role chaplains play, from supporting families in high-stress situations to helping individuals rediscover hope and purpose. Tune in to learn about the necessity of spiritual care in fostering resilience and the collaborative efforts required to support service members holistically.   Chapters: (00:04) Impact of Trauma on Military Spirituality (16:55) Exploring Trauma and Spirituality in Military (26:59) Strength Through Spiritual Foundations (31:29) Strengthening the Core for Resilience (35:29) Navigating Trauma and Spiritual Care (48:38) Navigating Trauma and Spiritual Support   Chapter Summaries: (00:04) Impact of Trauma on Military Spirituality Chaplain Belcher discusses trauma's impact on service members' spirituality and the need for innovative approaches in military medicine.   (16:55) Exploring Trauma and Spirituality in the Military Traumatic Impact Spiritual Assessment Tool highlights the importance of faith and community support for soldiers in combat environments.   (26:59) Strength Through Spiritual Foundations Finding our inner rebar that supports us through life's challenges, empowering us to find inner strength and protect our core integrity.   (31:29) Strengthening the Core for Resilience Nature's analogy of wooden ship masts for resilience, emphasizing core beliefs and uniqueness, and practical advice for military and medical professionals.   (35:29) Navigating Trauma and Spiritual Care Compassion and personal values shape identity and purpose, with chaplains providing holistic support for trauma through collaboration with medical providers.   (48:38) Navigating Trauma and Spiritual Support Faith, personal struggles, and medical crises intersect, with chaplains providing crucial support and integrating spiritual care into medical practice.   Take Home Messages: The Intersection of Trauma and Spirituality: The episode emphasizes the crucial role of spirituality in addressing trauma within the military.

South Korea is one of the great success stories of the past 30 years, moving from military dictatorship to a strong democracy and economy. Last year, it weathered a serious test when the former president tried to declare martial law. He's since been removed. But South Korea's also the home of a thriving number of troubling religious cults – some of them exported to Australia. Professor Tark Ji-il of Busan Presbyterian University understands this threat better than most. Not only is he a world-renowned expert, his family's been affected in a tragic way. He was in Australia recently, sharing his story.The heroic image of the Anzac at Gallipoli is of the young man, with rifle and bayonet, going over the top of the trenches to face a hail of bullets from the Turkish troops. While that was, indeed, true, there was another hero at Gallipoli, and he carried only a shovel and a Bible. William ‘Mac' McKenzie was a beloved Salvation Army chaplain. In his day, he ranked alongside our most famous soldiers and politicians. He's the subject of a new biography, The Man the Anzacs Revered, by author Daniel Reynaud. GUESTS:Professor Tark Ji-il - Busan Presbyterian University - a respected expert on South Korea's religious movements.Daniel Reynaud - author of The Man the Anzacs Revered

In this episode we visit the Anglican church in Ypres that was built when Ypres was redeveloped in the 1920's. Why did Ypres need a British church? Who were the worshippers? Why did they build a British school next door? And what happened in 1940 when the Germans occupied Ypres? How did the British people escape and what happened to the church? We go on a tour of the church and look at some of the hundreds of memorials displayed on the walls, and we have a chat with the Chaplain, Reverand Richard Clement.

It won't come as a surprise to you that hundreds of thousands of veterans across America are affected by trauma—some from their time in military service, though not all—and yet, their needs remain deeply misunderstood by many of us who haven't served. Not all veterans experience post-traumatic stress disorder, and yet many do—in fact, some 29 percent of veterans who served in Iraq experience it at some point in their lives. Others face issues similar to those of the general population, from mental illness to substance abuse and even childhood experiences. The need is not one-size-fits-all or even most, and the path to healing looks different for everyone too. That's what Chaplain Nate Lyons from The Salvation Army Veterans and Family Center in Beaverton, Oregon, helps us understand on this episode. As an Iraq war veteran himself, Nate now serves as chaplain and activities coordinator for some 72 veterans and their families who are on their own journeys toward healing. And today, Nate is taking us inside this special place of veteran care.  Whether you're a veteran yourself, love someone who has served, or simply want to understand how some approaches to trauma recovery are changing lives, this conversation is going to challenge how you think about healing, hope and the power of community.

Nestled in the Horn of Africa on the easternmost part of the African continent is a small country called Djibouti. It's bordered by three other countries: Eritrea to the north, Ethiopia to the west, and Somalia to the south. Djibouti's eastern border abuts the busy shipping lanes of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. These bodies of water are connected by the Bab al-Mandab Strait which serves as an essential gateway between the Mediterranean Sea with the Indian Ocean. Directly across that narrow body of water from Djibouti is Yemen. You can imagine the geopolitical significance of this particular part of the world. You might be thinking of issues pertaining to global trade, to international peace, to development and humanitarian assistance. And you might not be surprised to know that there is a United States military presence in Djibouti. But you might be surprised to learn that the only Catholic priest currently serving in the US military for the entire continent of Africa is living there in Djibouti. You might also be surprised to learn that this priest is a Jesuit, one who just a few months ago was teaching theology and neuroscience to undergraduates at Creighton University. Now, Fr. Chris Krall is serving as a chaplain, having been called up from his reserve status at the end of the 2024 fall semester. Instead of grading papers, he's traveling by helicopter to remote bases across Africa to bring the sacraments and a listening ear. Fr. Chris is our guest today calling in all the way from east Africa. If you've ever wondered what it's like to be a priest ministering to folks in the military, this conversation is for you. We talk about how Chris' current mission fits into his Jesuit vocation of being available to go where God's people need him. We wrestle with some of the possible tensions inherent in being a priest in the military. And we reflect on the surprising similarities between ministering to colleges students and ministering to women and men in uniform. A note: This conversation was recorded in late May.
