Spiritual Care and Concern


Spiritual Care and Concern
The spiritual concern of most renowned evangelists in the world make them to venture into tele-evangelization so as to enable them reach the greater percentage of souls perishing in sin and suffering in the hands of satan to rescue them.
Tele-evangelists have been in the vanguard of rescuing the perishing souls from enclaves of satan and eternal death, they have thus used television, telecast, satellite, radio and video scopes as the means of reaching the greater population of the world with the gospel message; thus providing a platform for the rescue of souls that are perishing and may finally be doomed for eternal damnation called spiritual death. What a wonderful ministry?
In the same vein, knowledge-authorities in chaplaincy have discovered that there is a need for the incorporation of spiritual care as an integral part of chaplaincy practice and service delivery to enable practicing chaplains attend to the spirits and souls of their clients.
The understanding of the fact that every living creature has a spirit assigned to it including human beings which requires special care, concern and attention, make chaplains to move to the idea of tele-chaplaincy in the year 2015AD to enable them offer spiritual care to the spirits and souls of their clients.
Chaplains who thus employed the television, telecast, radio or video to offer spiritual care and therapy are classified and called “Tele-chapalins.” This is the latest development and advancement in chaplaincy practice and service delivery which has come as a vindication for my call and advocacy for professional chaplaincy practice.
NB: While the tele-evengalists are preoccupied with how to win souls, how to rescue the perishing from the hands of satan and sin and to free them from eternal death; tele-chaplains are preoccupied with the followings:-
1.     Providing people the needed spiritual care and service delivery in whatever they are passing through, with the views of helping them to navigate positively without their souls being destroyed or their spirits been crushed.
2.      They provide spiritual care to souls who are crushed with psychological problems in life, with the views of liberating them to be able to life their normal life.
3.     They provide spiritual care to souls that have been frustrated, hopeless and in despair, with the views of taking them away from hopelessness and despair.
4.     They provide spiritual care to souls that are emotionally and spiritually battered, needing revitalization and encouragement to enable them to desire to continue living and fulfill their God-given destiny.
