Society's institutions are a mixed blessing. They provide us with colleges, hospitals, nursing homes, orphanages, and the military. But they also subject us to regimentation, which can be overwhelming, depersonalizing, and depressing. One refuge from such regimentation are chaplains, who offer much-needed emotional and spiritual care for people of all faiths. Literally and figuratively, chaplains are a godsend.
