SynopsisBeing a pastor is not a regular 9-to-5 job. There is an unending list of important things to do as you seek to serve others sacrificially. The demands of ministry make it difficult to find a healthy rhythm of life and work, and can leave you running on empty. How can we develop a sustainable pattern of ministry that both honors the Lord and the people we care for and that will also protect us from burnout? Ronnie Martin and Brian Croft have each spent decades pastoring churches and supporting ministry leaders. Here they encourage fellow shepherds to embrace a more present-focused, unhurried approach to ministry. They show how this starts with accepting their humanity, pursuing humility and remembering the hope they have in Christ. They also exhort pastors to fuel their ministry with self-awareness, prayer and contemplation of Jesus. After giving a framework for this approach to ministry, the authors offer lots of practical advice regarding prioritisation, managing schedules and cultivating supportive friendships. Read this book to deepen your joy, help yourself to serve others more effectively and continue serving God in ministry for many years to come., Many pastors feel stuck on a hamster wheel: hurtling from one meeting to another, constantly behind on their to-do list, drowning in a deluge of demands on their time. And another Sunday is only ever just around the corner. Brian Croft and Ronnie Martin have seen their fair share of busy, bruised, or burnt-out pastors. They've been those pastors. But there is a better way. Here they cast the vision for a more unhurried approach to ministry-one that attends to the pastor's heart before the to-do list and redefines what it means to truly be productive. Discover how to recapture the joy of ministry as you embrace a more sustainable pace, so that you can continue serving Jesus' sheep for many years to come.
