This book will encourage your heart and strengthen your faith in God. You’ll see that law enforcement is ministry that is to be respected and honored. You’ll also learn that chaplaincy is missions and necessary. As usually, Chaplain Vaughn has a way with being able to share godly wisdom and principles in memorable ways.

An easy and enjoyable read that I would highly recommend for anyone who is in law enforcement, has family or close friends in law enforcement, or is considering a ministry to law enforcement.

Personal account of being a police chaplain

Did a paper on police chaplaincy for a class assignment. Hope that there will be more research and publications on the subject

Definitely portrays a chaplain's perspective. Many of the images he portrays are vivid and lasting.
