Chaplain Corps Journals

Chaplain Corps journals “host[s] professional discourse” (DA PAM 25-40) and debate around the theory and practice of military chaplaincy through peer-reviewed contributions from U.S. Army Chaplain Corps members, Department of Defense personnel, Allied armed forces chaplains, and civilian academics and professionals. Articles advance knowledge within the Chaplain Corps by presenting important topics from both theoretically-informed and practice-oriented perspectives. Since 1972, these journals published articles on matters of chaplaincy and religious support leadership within the military. The publication's mission is nested within the Chief of Chaplain’s (CCH) priorities for Chaplain Corps (CHC) professionalization and the Chief of Staff of the Army’s (CSA) vision for the renewal of professional writing and publication outlined in the Harding Project.
