Serve Somebody: Musings of a Pastoral Care Practitioner on the Covenant of Care

Abstract

In this article, I explore what it means to “serve somebody,” drawing from my own experience as a full-time chaplain. Chaplains must serve many different parties, but are ultimately called to care for their patients via a covenental relationship of care.
