Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Are you in ministry? Are you considering entering ministry? Do you know someone who is currently in ministry? If you answered 'yes' to any of these questions, then this book is for you. Ministry from a Practical Viewpoint centers around the pivotal question of: While pastors care for so many others, who cares for the pastors? Often, the life of a minister revolves around serving people and pouring into others during both turbulent and jubilant times. From tending to the elderly, sick and shut-in to the newly wed and bereaved families, pastors are often the bedrock foundation for their congregants and members of their communities. Yet, with the attentiveness, care, and time that is required to pastor small, mid, and large size congregations, sometimes pastors forget about themselves which can lead to illness, divorce, burnout, fatigue, or even abandoning one's calling. To prevent this, it is important that pastors recognize the importance of their own needs. From real-world self-care strategies to recommendations for negotiating family leave and one's salary, Ministry from a Practical Viewpoint is a rich tapestry of stories, strategies, and pragmatic steps that pastors can take to ensure that they are rejuvenated, refreshed, and re-invigorated to do God's work.
