Welcome to the Quiet Chaplain

 “Be still, and know that I am God.” – Psalm 46:10

In a noisy world filled with hustle and distraction, The Quiet Chaplain is a sacred pause.

This space is a gentle invitation — to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with God through the rhythms of Scripture, spiritual practice, and silent presence. Whether you’re a caregiver, ministry leader, chaplain, or someone simply seeking deeper soul rest, you're welcome here.

Each week we offer:

  • Sabbath meditations

  • Breath prayers rooted in Scripture

  • Quiet confessions and encouragements

  • Devotions for everyday discipleship

  • Moments of soul care for weary hearts

This isn’t a platform built on performance. It’s a sacred bench beneath the trees — where you are invited to sit, exhale, and listen.

You don’t have to speak loudly to be heard by God.
You don’t have to be seen by many to be known by Him.
Sometimes, the most powerful ministry is done in silence.

Welcome to The Quiet Chaplain — where presence is the ministry, and stillness is sacred.

Special Post: A Quiet Response to a Noisy September

Photo by  gaspar zaldo  on  Unsplash September has been a heavy month. Across our nation, we’ve been confronted with headlines filled with violence, unrest, and fear. Communities have felt the weight of tension and conversations seem increasingly shaped by division rather than unity. It feels like the volume of the world has been turned up — and not in joy, but in anger, fear, and grief. As the Quiet Chaplain, I don’t come with political solutions or easy answers. My calling is to listen, to reflect, and to invite us to notice the presence of God even when the noise of the world is overwhelming. This is a moment that calls not for louder voices, but for deeper stillness. Not for reaction, but for reflection. Not for despair, but for hope rooted in Christ. In this post, I want to explore four practices that can guide us in these noisy times: Grieving honestly. Praying with hope. Practicing presence. Becoming peacemakers. Along the way, we’ll draw from Scripture, history, a...

The Sacred Stillness That Finds Us

Photo by  Erwann Letue  on  Unsplash Anchor Scripture: “Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10 (NLT) There are places in life that feel thin — where the space between heaven and earth suddenly narrows, and God feels unexpectedly near. Sometimes they come upon us without warning: a hospital hallway where grief lingers in the air; a kitchen table holding steaming coffee and a perfectly timed phone call from a friend; the hush after a storm when everything outside looks rinsed and soft again. More often than not, though, we rush past holy ground in our attempt to keep up with life. Sacred stillness is not something we conquer to prove our spiritual strength. It is something that  finds us  — if only we are willing to let ourselves be found. At the launch of  The Quiet Chaplain , this opening week invites you not to  do  more, but to bravely  stop , to  be still , and to look for the God who has been waiting there all along. The No...

Welcome to The Quiet Chaplain - Where Sacred Stillness Meets Everyday Life

Photo by  Kira auf der Heide  on  Unsplash Welcome to “The Quiet Chaplain” — a space for reflection, presence, Scripture, and soul care. Over the years, as a hospice chaplain, Coast Guard ACS chaplain, ministry leader, and now a case manager and spiritual companion, I’ve discovered that the deepest work of God often happens in the still places. The unseen moments. The whispered prayers. The small faithfulnesses that no one claps for — but heaven notices. This blog isn’t for the platformed or polished. It’s for the pastors who feel burned out but still show up. For the chaplains who walk into silence holding hope. For the caregivers, counselors, and everyday companions who know what it means to love faithfully behind the scenes. It’s for you — the one whose quiet faith moves mountains in unseen places. So come. Breathe. Read. Reflect. You don’t have to be loud to be faithful. You don’t have to be known to be significant. The Spirit speaks in whispers. And sometimes the mos...
