\" I desire relationship, not your posing.\" - Timothy Warren<\/h2>\n

It is happening all around us.\u00a0 In fact, maybe you have felt it happening within you?\u00a0 The shaking of what we thought we understood it was to be an authentic pastor or a minister.\u00a0 You have been a faithful leader, worked hard and been what you and others thought was heroic.\u00a0 You have served and sacrificed for the sake of the Kingdom, but you have become weary of the incessant need to maintain a facade and perhaps you are desiring the simplicity and safety of healthy relationships.\u00a0 Maybe you are just tired of the 'hamster wheel\" - working so hard to live up to the expectations of others that you have awakened to discover you no longer know who you are.\u00a0 You just want to be an authentic human being who is also a good, healthy pastor.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is not uncommon, and the good news is there is hope!\u00a0 Many, many pastors are\"pastor-care3-708x450\"<\/a> awakening to this reality in their own lives.\u00a0 They can learn to shed the \"poser\" and experience deep contentment with family and ministry as they discover the richness of deeper relationship with God!<\/span><\/p>\n
