Thriving in Ministry

If your inner reserves are insufficient for the demands of ministry, you’re likely to experience signs and symptoms of stress and burnout. This is why good wellbeing practices are essential to maintaining long term resilience in ministry.

Church leadership has many facets: from the unseen administration and management duties, to the public ministry of preaching, teaching and pastoral care. Expectations are often high, a feeling of overload and overwhelm is common, and often self-care and personal wellbeing drifts to the bottom of the list of priorities. This programme, led by a therapist or facilitator, will enable church leaders to set time aside; explore why strong wellbeing practices are essential, and learn to make self-care a priority to build a thriving ministry.
