Chaplain

The Chaplain and the Bull An item in an Eau Claire paper speaks of the Reverend Joseph Moran, a preacher of that city, being out on a trout fishing expedition, and the few words therein bring a train of thought in regard to the reverend gentleman that causes a smile to come and a tear to chase away the smile.

Some years ago, the writer was at Camp Douglas officially at the time the First Wisconsin Regiment was in camp, and among the frequent visitors to headquarters was the chaplain, this Reverend Moran, a great big fellow like John L. Sullivan, with a heart in him as tender as that of Helen Gould.

On duty as chaplain, he was a meek and humble follower of the lowly Savior, preaching words that carried conviction to the hearts of the soldier boys and made them love him like a brother.

Welcome to the Leadership and Success Podcast.

How are you doing today, Chaplain?

I am doing wonderful.

Thank you so very much for, uh, for having me, and thank you so much to your audience for spending a little time to, uh, to share in this conversation.

But, but you are right.

From the beginning we were talking your journey has been quite unusual, right? You mentioned The Citadel, and then you also did business and accounting, an MBA in strategy.

Then you went to Princeton Theological Seminary, private sector work, ministry, uh, Navy Chaplain Corps, and, uh, now doctoral research, right, in theological ethics.

That's really a lot.

And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea.

America! America![audience applauding] Ladies and gentlemen, please remain standing for the benediction provided by Chaplain Major General Trent Davis, United States Air Force Chief of Chaplains.

Will you please bow with me in prayer? Almighty God, on this hallowed ground where your heavenly gra- grace met our deepest grief, we give thanks for you are our rock, our refuge, and our ever-present help.

On this, the 25th year of solemn remembrance, we pledge to never forget these innocent souls lost aboard Flight 77 and the faithful patriots who gave their all within this citadel of freedom.

Obviously, we hadn't learned a lot.

Chaplain of the Knoxville Fire Department, City of Knoxville, Paul Trumper is going to join us soon.

We're going to talk with him.

He's been doing this a long time.

Hmm.

and I think we saw quite a few miracles.

But before we get to Teddy and all of that, and now Chaplain Trumper, he's going to be at the 9-11, or I know he's doing a lot.

He has been a fire department, city and actual fire department chaplain.
