Publisher Description: A gentle new way for church leader's to survive stress and burnout Bruce Miller debunks the idea of balance--basically trying to have it all, all the time. Most churches and their pastors try to do everything at once and feel guilty if any one aspect (worship, ministries, outreach, etc.) is neglected. He replaces the exhausting concept of balance with the idea of rhythm: churches, like people, need to give attention to different programs and ministries at different times, basically by attending to their seasons and cycles.
The author offers much-need help to overwhelmed leaders and shows them how to apply Miller's seasonal/cyclical approach to church life. |
