Welcome to “The Chaplain’s Chair,” a thought-provoking podcast about religion, faith, family, and yes, even some politics sprinkled in from time to time!

About the Podcast Host

The social and political issues of the day are often the moral issues of the day. Christians must confront these issues honestly and with clarity if our families, communities, and nation are to be strong. The moral fabric of our society depends on a firm foundation of truth.
