Pastors

Out of Context: Mindy Caliguire

Leadership Journal May 16, 2007

“With the performance pressures church leaders face today, it’s a wonder more are not flaming out. I wish more churches could talk honestly about the ministry systems that perpetuate the problem. What will have to happen before we change? For how long will we ignore the health of our leaders’ souls and focus only on their performance?”

Mindy Caliguire is a director with the Spiritual Formation Alliance. Taken from “Soul Train: Learning to minister at the speed of your soul.” in the Spring 2007 issue of Leadership journal.
