“There’s a theory that if you gave a million monkeys typewriters and set them all to work, they’d eventually come up with the complete works of William Shakespeare. Yet, thanks to the internet, we now know this isn’t true” - Ian Hart Listen Here:
anchor.fm/as-the-crow-flies/episodes/S1-E1-Digital-Chaplaincy-eevoau Released on 4 June episode one (run time of 32:47) focussed on the emerging medium of digital chaplaincy and how it is being used as a practical response to the global COVID-19 pandemic. We explored the new Chat to a Chaplain platform developed by The Mission to Seafarers and considered some of the strengths and weaknesses of digital chaplaincy. While one of the greatest strengths is the fact that digital chaplaincies can be accessed from any place on the planet at any time of the day or night, the downside is the fact that this requires access to the internet and 24 hour manning of the digital platforms. Chat to a Chaplain is monitored 24/7 which makes it an ideal tool during the pandemic. The episode also considered some tips and tricks around making digital interactions meaningful and professional. This included ideas around how to begin and end an interaction.
