    (Adventist University of Africa, 2024-03) Macharia, Geoffrey Waweru
    Emotional intelligence (EI) stands as a cornerstone in the realm of effective chaplaincy services, especially within the context of educational institutions. This project comprehensively investigates the intricate correlation between EI and chaplaincy ministry in virtue of educational realm of Seventh-day Adventist institutions in the Central Kenya Conference (CKC). Unraveling the historical journey of chaplaincy in the East Kenya Union Conference provides a backdrop for understanding the various dynamics of Seventh-day Adventist School Chaplaincy in CKC. A central focus is placed on the practical application of EI in CKC’s Seventh-day Adventist school chaplaincy, uncovering its profound impact on conflict resolution and overall efficacy. Weaving biblical foundations into the fabric of EI, the research harmonizes scriptural insights with contemporary psychological theories. Culminating in practical strategies, the thesis addresses the unique challenges and opportunities within Seventh-day Adventist schools, aiming to seamlessly integrate EI into chaplaincy practices. This interdisciplinary exploration seeks to raise awareness of EI’s transformative role in the context of chaplaincy ministry services within the CKC. The study concludes by offering actionable recommendations for the enhanced integration of EI, thereby meeting its objectives of illuminating the vital link between EI and chaplain’s job performance within CKC’s chaplaincy landscape.
