Pastors, church staff members, and dedicated volunteers are often disappointed to find that leadership in a local church can actually work against life balance and spiritual growth. Even so, there is a way to obtain a sense of well-being while continuing to be fully engaged in ministry. Keeping Your Balance provides simple strategies for those who are busy with an active, sometimes hectic church life, yet have a yearning for personal gratification and inner peace in the midst of their work. Author, coach, and ordained minister Sharon L. Vandegrift draws on her experiences to show that there is more to church leadership than busyness. She focuses on seven main ideas to help you find renewed joy in serving the Lord: - Saying It Out Loud - Savoring - Breathing - Plugging Along - Clearing the Path - Making Friends - Building Bridges At the end of each section, Vandegrift offers reflection questions and a prayer to help you apply these strategies to your life. Designed as a resource, this handy guide will assist professional and volunteer leaders to live out their passion for church work while discovering ways to care for themselves, be intentional about life balance, and move forward on their faith journeys.
