Being the Worshipful Grand Chaplain

“In the weeks and months after my appointment to this role, I struggled to learn what a chaplain needs to do, to understand how to do those things, to begin to grow in my responsibilities, and finally to become what I hoped to ultimately be – a real Chaplain and to entirely disdain the thought, idea, or even the appearance of a man satisfied to merely have a title and fill a chair.

How does one learn these things?

When I was a boy of five, my grandparents loaded me, my brother, and a cousin of ours into the back seat of their 1973 Plymouth Fury III. Gold, it was with black vinyl seats, and – thank goodness, ice cold air conditioning. We drove from Beautiful, East Texas to Florida on our way to Disney World. Such a memory!”
