re-set
time out to build resilience and sustainability in ministry
There are times when we all need a re-set.
Something may be wrong or broken in our lives
… and we need it to be re-set.
We may be struggling in terms of direction, energy, passion, or even faith
… and again we need a re-set.
Re-set is about helping Christian leaders re-set and re-connect with the One who said:
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest.
Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.
Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” – Jesus (Matt 11:28-30, MSG)
Re-set is about knowing there is a need – where perhaps you feel you are running on fumes, where obligation and duty have replaced passion and calling.
Re-set is about being brave enough to identify those areas where there is a need for a re-set and seeing the flashing amber lights before the terminal red light.
Re-set can take many forms, one of which may be a shared journey with a travelling companion.
