Forming Emotionally Healthy Ministers
The 2024 SPCM conference in Charlotte will explore a variety of issue related to the emotional health of those serving in ministry and our role as educators to form emotionally healthy ministers.
We live and minister during a time when the stress and pressure of ministry is escalating. Because we understand that healthy personal and spiritual lives are foundational to our work as educators and to the future work that our students will do, we are dedicating this conference to address the ongoing challenge of forming emotionally healthy ministry leaders. As Pete Scazzero frequently asserts, “Our being must sustain our doing.” Our teaching must flow out of deep transforming work that Christ is doing in our lives. This conference is a call to attend to our hearts and to the hearts of the students that God has entrusted to us.
