520 |a The purpose of this essay is to discuss the importance of identity formation in the growth and development of chaplains, inclusive of sports chaplains. There is a longstanding history of how identity formation occurs with men and women who have chosen chaplaincy as a part of their vocational calling. The common beginnings for many include a point of occupational testing for vocational tendencies, engaged service in institutional settings such as in the office of a hospital chaplain. In tandem with prayer, studying the Bible of other primary source documents (if not Christian) then one may undergo a period of seeking, illumination, and then a revelation from the Creator about chaplaincy. Chaplains have multiple identities as caregivers. The foundational argument of this paper is that the proper formation of identity as a chaplain compels the individual working in this facet of ministry to see his/herself as a chaplain first and then as a sports chaplain secondarily. The identity of the chaplain impacts the manner in which he/she serves people in sports but also greatly influences the position of sports chaplains in the global community of chaplains.
