Are you a clergywoman who struggles with feeling disconnected from the beliefs that you thought would define your ministry?
· Did you come into the ordained ministry to bring God’s dream of inclusive, compassionate community into being?
· But now do you feel exhausted, burdened by the politics and judgment within your own church?
· Are there days you wonder whether you want to continue with ministerial work?
Here is what I know. If you are answering, “Yes,” to these questions, there is a deeper problem going on. You aren’t just feeling disconnected from your beliefs; you are distanced from God, and your faith in God as present and active in your own life as a servant leader.
How do I know? My own experience as an ordained woman and the experiences of my clients, clergywomen who share your feelings of frustration, exhaustion and futility, are very much like your own. Staying on this course can only lead to diminished impact in your work, and eventual burn out in your whole life that can feel insurmountable.
While I know that you cannot change or fix your parishioners’ thoughts, feelings or actions, here is something else I know: making a change within yourself that changes your life is possible. You can remember your call, you can remember the character of the God from whom you received that call, and you can choose again to serve God as a disciple, a seeker of truth, freeing yourself to serve without the fear that may currently limit your life and work.
My audio, Handcrafted Faith: Serving without Fear, brings my experience as an ordained minister, a life-long woman of faith and an educational background in communications, social change and development, women’s studies and pastoral ministry, to my expertise, mentoring women in ministry.
In this audio I help you, as I have helped other ordained women, move from doubting yourself, your values, you very call to ministry, to reclaiming your faith in yourself, the character of the God who called you, to expressing that call in your ministry. In this audio, I help you reconnect with that still small voice within you that guides you in the way you know, that you can allow yourself to trust your life and work to again.
