Chaplain Career One Of Many Ministry Career Options

While I am a healthcare chaplain at the present time, I just enjoy helping others see the phenomenal ministry opportunities that exist in chaplaincy.

But professional chaplain careers are just one expression of ministry career possibilities and even I would respond to open doors to minister in hundreds, even thousands of ministry career options.

This ministry career website reveals a internet ministry opportunity, to share career opportunities that help fulfill the calling of God to impact our world. Thus I see myself as an internet chaplain, helping people be all they can be by the grace of God.

Initially an effort on my part to speak to the issue of pastors leaving ministry, I chose the concept of careers with purpose to help them see ministry career options beyond local church employment.
