I fully get what you are saying about a Chief Belief Officer.  I am a pastor and Biblical Counselor at a church.  And as a pastor who has counseled hundreds of people I noticed that many have lost all hope.  One of the first things that I establish with my counselee's is that they can do all things through Christ.  I give them my full support in helping them overcome whatever obstacles that they are facing and encouraging them with hope, the one thing about hope is that hope does not disappoint.  I love the encouragement that was given to the inmate not to live in the past and to focus on the task at hand.

Thank you,

Mr. Dye
