Podcast Episode #023
I recently wrote a blogpost on the eight areas ministers are often unprepared for ministry. The post created quite a stir and brought with it a great discussion. These are areas almost all ministers will experience difficulty at some point in their careers. We look over the points I mentioned in the post and expound on some of the issues involved.
- Relational intelligence.
- Leadership skills.
- Dealing with critics.
- Family matters.
- Finances.
- Consumer mentality.
- Uneven expectations.
- Uneven spiritual growth.
