Day 2
Embodying Wellness: Healing, Wholeness, and Self-care for the Preacher
The pressure is relentless—raising money, leading meetings, administrating programs, and caring for the flock. But in the stillness, God waits to meet you. This workshop is an invitation to pause and embrace silence, not as escape, but as sacred encounter. In those quiet moments, you will find clarity, courage, creativity through the sustaining presence of God to carry you forward in ministry.
