146 - They Don't Want Any Weirdo Chaplains: Kevin Shive, Serving the Shield

Text the Show or Leave a VoicemailI want police officers to understand why chaplains exist and I want chaplains to understand how they can serve better.  One of the best ways to "get it" is to listen to this conversation with a chaplain who has the right attitude and character.  Our guest today is Kevin Shive. Kevin is a police chaplain from Golden, Colorado and he is also the founder and executive director of Serving the Shield, formerly Rocky Mountain Police and Fire Chaplains.  Kevin is going to share some chaplain stories from the front lines but we are also going to talk about vetting and dismissing people who may not be fit to be chaplains."This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil."
