TOMORROW! Attention pastors and ministry leaders! I am having a FREE mini-workshop called "Body & Soul: Mental Health for Ministry Leaders" TOMORROW Wednesday, May 13th at 9:00-10:15 am at the Greene County Baptist Association building in Springfield, MO.
Hey, pastor... are you okay? Always available. Always encouraging. Always trying to be strong. That pressure can be heavy. You are first a child of God. God cares about your soul, not just your service.

Lifeway Research found that 23% of pastors say they’ve had personal struggles with mental health. A Barna survey showed that 18 percent of Protestant senior pastors said they had contemplated self-harm or su***de within the past year -- driven partially by a loneliness epidemic that is often hidden behind the pulpit. Barna found that nearly 48 percent of pastors say they feel lonely or isolated. That research also showed that of the 18 percent, the large majority of pastors said such thoughts were fleeting or isolated.
I spent 18 years in vocational ministry before becoming a counselor. This workshop is designed to help pastors and ministry leaders with their mental health. Come for an hour to receive some assessment, practical tools, and encouragement from a fellow pastor, now counselor.
