This new collection, from chaplains in a wide variety of contemporary chaplaincy settings in the UK and around the globe, brings together practitioner perspectives with academic discussion and is tailored to support students of Chaplaincy at every level. The lively narratives and reflections make this book accessible to those engaging with what chaplaincy means for the first time, while the rigorous critical engagement with key issues makes this a key read for anyone seeking a fresh and global perspective on developments at the forefront of this swiftly growing and diversifying field of ministry. The volume explores what chaplaincy means in contemporary and global settings. It takes seriously the intersectionality of both practitioners and recipients of chaplaincy ministry, centering factors such as race, gender and disability, alongside political, missional and denominational considerations.
