April 30, 2021
•
Rod Taylor and Peter Vogel
Prison chaplain Richard Vander Vaart speaks with Rod and Peter about the desperate need for chaplaincy / pastoral care for those behind bars and the men and women dedicated to preserving public safety and the rule of law.
Richard is a retired police chaplain and now works for Redemption Prison Ministry in the Atlantic region, ministering to prisoners. Beyond the skills needed to communicate well with those going through stress, Richard emphasizes the need for prayer and the blessing of communicating even by letters with those cut off from society.
