Can ministry leaders truly afford to neglect their own well-being in the name of serving others? Discover how prioritizing self-care can actually enhance your ability to serve effectively in our latest episode of God's Diamonds in the Rough. We're thrilled to be joined by Janice McWilliams, a seasoned spiritual director and counselor, who shares her transformative journey from campus ministry to embracing holistic self-care. Together with hosts Catherine and Michael, Janice unpacks the biblical foundation for self-care, underlining that attending to our needs is not selfish but essential for sustainable ministry. We also challenge the commercialized self-care trends, advocating for practical, affordable, and continuous self-care habits that align with our spiritual callings.
But that's not all! This episode is packed with actionable advice on how to weave self-care into the fabric of your daily life. From finding balance in your thoughts and emotions to establishing healthy life rhythms, we offer insights inspired by Jesus' own practice of alternating between ministry and solitude. Learn how to incorporate small moments of peace and reflection, and understand the significance of recognizing your limits and discerning your priorities through spiritual practices. Join us for an enriching conversation that promises to equip you with the tools to navigate life's challenges while maintaining your well-being and effectiveness in ministry.
