Framework
Intended Impact
Thriving and resilient ministry leaders fostering healthy, sustainable lives and ministries.
Deepened Intimacy with God
Leaders cultivate a closer, more vibrant relationship with God and establish regular spiritual rhythms in their lives. They consistently engage in practices like prayer, scripture meditation, Sabbath rest and reflection, which renew their sense of calling and joy in ministry. Leaders reconnect with their spiritual identity beyond their ministry role, experiencing God's presence in everyday life.
Emotional Healing and Wholeness
Leaders experience personal healing from burnout, unhealthy coping mechanisms and past wounds. They become more self-aware of their triggers and dysfunctional behaviors and find freedom from shame, guilt, hurt, or bitterness that may have accumulated through life and ministry. Over time, leaders develop healthier emotional patterns and a greater sense of inner wholeness, empowering them to respond positively to stress in life and ministry.
Resilience and Longevity in Ministry
Leaders become more resilient as they adopt sustainable rhythms and establish healthy boundaries. They learn to manage stress, time, and work-family boundaries in a healthier way, prioritizing rest and personal/family life alongside ministry responsibilities. They also move from reactive, emotionally-driven responses to grounded, self-aware leadership. They lead teams, ministries, and families from a place of identity in Christ--not performance, fear, or people-pleasing. This allows them to handle conflict, criticism, or complexity with maturity and clarity. They recognize and replace dysfunctional leadership behaviours (e.g. perfectionism, conflict avoidance).
Authentic Supportive Community (Safe Spaces)
Leaders value, participate in, and create safe and trusting spaces for shared learning that leads to authentic relationships within families and with peers, mentors, and those they lead.
