Ministry can be disheartening at times. Today, we discuss how you can stay encouraged in ministry.
Some highlights from today’s episode include:
- Encouragement is often elusive for pastors.
- People who encourage you are a gift.
- When we think of others before ourselves, we often find encouragement in seeing how God is moving in the lives of others.
- The more time you spend around encouraging people the more encouraging you will be.
- Get to know other pastors in your area and encourage one another.
The seven encouragement ideas we discuss are:
- Practice Acts 6:4
- Be an encourager
- Stay outwardly focused
- Spend time with encouragers
- Be a continuous learner
- Find a network
- Delegate draining tasks
