-- "Ministry in the Trenches: Juvenile Detention Chaplaincy
Reflection, Thought, and Prayer 1994-2018": a brilliant manuscript
of pieces that reflect the thoughts of the youth in a juvenile
detention facility. "Ministry in the Trenches: Juvenile Detention
Chaplaincy Reflection, Thought, and Prayer 1994-2018" is the
creation of published author C.D. Tinsley, a Presbyterian minister.
He served as the full-time chaplain for the Juvenile Detention
System of Contra Costa County,
California, until 2018. He is currently serving as stated
supply pastor of the historic West Cincinnati Presbyterian Church,
Cincinnati, Ohio.
Tinsley shares, "Ministry in the Trenches is a compilation of
articles from Ministering Together, the newsletter of the
Interfaith Council of Contra Costa County
California (formerly the Council of Churches). The
manuscript offers an intimate overview of the nature, and
evolution, of a specialized ministerial practice as chronicled and
illustrated by the Rev. Dr. Charles D.
Tinsley, a Presbyterian minister (Presbyterian Church,
USA). He served as the full-time
chaplain for that San Francisco Bay
Area county's juvenile detention facilities for twenty-four
years, 1994 through 2018.
"Included in the text are reflections, poems, prayers, short
biographical sketches, and excerpts from letters as presented and
written by the young people themselves.
"You have showed me and taught me a lot of things including how
to keep my lips zipped when I have something to share with people
when really I shouldn't share my thoughts that could hurt me in the
long run."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, C.D. Tinsley's new book
is a real and heartfelt read throughout pages that speak the inner
feelings and thoughts of the young people detained in the facility.
This is an inspiring and touching look into their lives.
