Weakness

As a minister, I’m used to helping people during crisis. But trapped at home during Hurricane Helene, I could only care for who was in front of me.

What happens when we embrace the limits of our strength?

How a “low anthropology” pushes back on perfectionistic assumptions about human nature.

When beloved congregants turned on me, who could I trust for advice?

My life-changing diagnosis forced me to learn myself—and my ministry role—all over again.

Like Jesus, we must accept, even embrace, our embodied limitations.

Why do we believe ‘There’s no crying in ministry’?

Could your leadership “weaknesses” really be your strengths?

Dear Lord, please give me a mega ministry when I burn out.

I don’t fit the typical definition of a “strong” leader, and I am glad I don’t.
