Opening up the black box of chaplaincy
This study investigated the reported workings of a narrative and interfaith spiritual care intervention in palliative care at home called “In dialogue with your life story.” It was developed to address clients’ spiritual needs in the religious plural context of the Netherlands.

Relating religious leaders’ personality, leadership style, and emotional intelligence to member assessments of church vitality
This study reports a multidimensional approach to assessing religious leadership, combining leadership assessments made by 22 church leaders with 2819 vitality ratings from members of the associated Protestant churches in the Netherlands who participated in the National Church Life Survey.

Twenty-five years after the latest review study by Nauss, an updated overview is needed to account for new insights, especially regarding the latest developments in leadership research and the changing religious landscape. A scoping review was cond…
Chaplains’ Professional Identity and a Structured Approach to Chaplaincy
The trend towards evidence-based health care challenges chaplains to work with structured—predefined and standardized—interventions that lead to measurable outcomes. However, chaplaincy literature raises various objections against using a structured approach. These include compromising the chaplain-client relationship, standardizing and limiting chaplaincy content, and the instrumentalization of the spiritual dimension. Based on a thematic analys…
The Most Significant Book of the Netherlands — And Its Ordinary Readers
Although the Netherlands has become one of the most secular countries in the world, the Bible still plays an important role for many people as a source of cultural and spiritual inspiration. Despite extant empirical research, there remains a pressing gap of knowledge concerning the actual use of the Bible by “ordinary readers.” This makes it more difficult for organizations such as the Dutch Bible Society to engage the public with the distributio…
Personality Traits of Church Planters and Other Church Leaders in Europe (II)
In search of a renewal of their mission in the secularized West, an increasing number of (Protestant) churches have embarked on the creation of new faith communities with a strong missionary purpose. This entrepreneurial approach of mission raises a number of questions, among which the issue of leadership is paramount. Currently, however, very little reliable empirical research has been done among faith entrepreneurs, or ‘church planters’, in Eur…
Personality Traits of Church Planters in Europe
In this article we present the results of a Big Five personality test among 59 religious entrepreneurs (church planters) in Europe, and we compare these results with (a) a general database, and (b) existing research among secular entrepreneurs. Our study concludes that church planters are significantly more extravert and significantly less neurotic than the general population. Although our research also indicates that church planters are more agr…
