Why do hospitals have chaplains? What do hospital chaplains do?
In a brief and often humorous way, the author / editor offers us a unique look behind the hospital’s curtains. The 60 stories found here are thought-provoking, heart-breaking, entertaining, and always true. The book is an edited collection from multiple hospitals and many chaplains, all told through the consistent voices of two representatives – Chaplain Bobbi and Chaplain Ben. They admit to failure, exhaustion, joy, and being in all ways fully human. They are also quick to recognize and admit those wonderful and rare occasions when their work is touched by the Divine.
