Description
Resilient Ministry: What Pastors Told Us About Surviving and Thriving is a comprehensive guide to thriving in ministry. Drawing from a five-year research project, this book distills the wisdom of dozens of pastors who have been on the front lines of ministry. The authors identify five key themes that promote healthy, sustainable ministry: spiritual formation, self-care, emotional and cultural intelligence, marriage and family, and leadership and management. These themes are explored in depth, with questions for personal evaluation and reflection included throughout to help readers apply the insights to their own lives. This book is a valuable resource for pastors seeking to sustain themselves in ministry, as well as church boards and others looking to support their pastors. It offers practical wisdom and guidance on how to navigate the challenges of ministry and achieve long-term success.
