Pastor Steve Ely continues as the guest in this episode of Next Step Leadership with Tracy Reynolds and Chris Maxwell. As mentioned last week, Steve serves as the Director of Clergy Development for the International Pentecostal Holiness Church. He’s also the author of Climate Change, a book about the climate of today’s Christianity. In this conversation Steve tells the story of his own healing process from the stress, tension, and pressure of life in leadership and ministry. His heart attack almost ended his life. He lived, but it forced him to take a sabbatical, see a counselor, and make major decisions. He had been internalizing perfectionism and the pressure of ministry. He had to come out of his isolation and pursue healthy relationships. Isolation is the number one factor causing ministers to seek leaving the ministry. Listen to Steve’s honesty. Read his book. Seek help. Now is the time to seek help.
