The Chaplain is In: Journey to Health and Happiness will help you process the difficult times you face in life. Within these pages, you will find stories, insights, wisdom, science, and spirituality to assist you as you cope with life's challenges. Through it all, you will come to appreciate the ever accessible and sustaining Source of strength that is always available--and wants to bless you in ways unimaginable. Many of us have learned to trust that Source as "our Lord God." You will discover helpful techniques for day-to-day living as everyone encounters stuff that stymies their peace of mind. In order to help you process those difficulties, I share my own journey along with several episodes from the lives of others. These are people who overcame difficult challenges through putting to work the principles and coping skills presented here. This book offers a true-to-life look at how real people cope within some of the worst of circumstances. Through their struggles, you will find hope for your situation and solace for your soul. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, and this book will help you find it. You may laugh and cry as you read--and, at points, it may seem like fiction. Yet, these stories are offered in hopes you will see your own story in a new light while letting this book touch and empower you. Within our weaknesses and difficulties lie the potential for expanding inner strength, wisdom and understanding. My job as a chaplain is to help people find the fortitude and the courage to endure what happens to them in life while also assisting them as they reach for what is most rewarding and integritous in life. This book is my way of offering you the kind of guidance a chaplain can provide as you seek to make sense of life's challenges and disappointments. And so, get ready to grow in ways you perhaps never could have imagined, because--The Chaplain is In!
