Abstract

In order to substantiate the contribution of military chaplains to the moral formation of military personnel from a Protestant theological perspective this article examines, first, how an absolute imperative can be found in a relative reality, second, how a faith-inspired view of reality can be combined with a serviceable attitude towards reality, and finally, how a vision on flourishing life should be articulated and lived by military chaplains. The conclusion is that Protestant theological views of morality offer promising perspectives on the moral formation of military personnel. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
