Product Description
Ministry is challenging, complex, and costly. Too many pastors and church leaders are getting spread thin, burned out, and walking away In an ever-changing church culture that includes social media, blurred denominational lines, and an increased demand for relational ministry, many pastors are feeling overwhelmed, becoming discouraged, and dropping out of leadership roles. You may be one of them--but you are not ready to give up. The Resilient Pastor will help you to focus on character development and spiritual formation as a Christian leader, engaging the challenges of ministry with passion and perseverance. You will explore ten principles for developing pastoral resilience and consider biblical examples as well as testimonies from contemporary leaders as you lay the foundation for becoming a resilient leader. This journey through The Resilient Pastor will be worth your time as an individual leader or in a small group context with other pastors. ""In The Resilient Pastor, Dr. Mark Searby gracefully weds his experiences as pastor, counselor, educator, and mentor. Filled with sage advice, sound practices, and helpful illustrations, The Resilient Pastor speaks to the needs of those involved in the daily grind of ministry life. Though ministry may be messy, Dr. Searby provides a path to healthy longevity in our calling."" --Chuck Sackett, Senior Pastor, Madison Park Christian Church, Quincy, IL and Professor-at-Large, Lincoln Christian Seminary, Lincoln, IL ""Every church leader, whether just beginning or well down the road of the ministry journey, will benefit from learning and applying the ten principles outlined in The Resilient Pastor. With practical insights . . . a] compassionate and wise heart . . . and the biblical depth of a mature Christian leader, Searby shows us the way to growth, vitality, and joy. If you have hit a tough patch but you long to finish the ministry journey well, this volume lights up the path. I heartily recommend The Resilient Pastor."" --Tim McCoy, Senior Pastor, Ingleside Baptist Church, Macon, Georgia ""'I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.'
