Clergy: Want to make a difference in your communities?
*wait for it*
It's about relationships. And you can't just do it inside the house of worship doors.
Be proactive so you don't have to be reactive.

The Parsonage Project received a lot of questions about Project 2025. We take no political stands, but we do stand against hate in any form. Our friends at Global Project Against Hate & Extremism produced a #factsheet. You can access that below & learn more about #Project2025's agenda.

Every clergy member has a responsibility to speak out against mis and dis information in their house of worship.
Visit www.parsonageproject.org for resources or reach out and we'll help you frame that conversation.

Today is the Feast of Saint Benedict, a Christian monastic who, upon being given a poison bun, prayed to God. A cross is said to have appeared, thus, hot cross buns. The religious order began to give away hot cross buns to the poor who knocked on their door.
In the spirit of St. Benedict, consider contributing to a local #foodpantry run through a house of worship. 100% of your funds go straight to the program, and none of it goes to "administrative fees" or other such funds.
One thing we see people who have professional ministry coaches do, is have firm boundaries about their schedule and time.
The rest of us look like this.
To our #clergy celebrating #IndependenceDay we wish you relaxation and rejuvenation!

When in burnout, you rarely know you're burnt out. I certainly didn't. I thought I hid my "issues" (now I know they were symptoms) and people around me misread my reactions producing terrible professional relationship results.
Here's one Christian pastor's story. He figured it out and was able to produce some wonderful results.

"They need to hear they are loved and have value so as to be worth seeking to change their lives according to their understanding of God through the Holy Spirit.
THAT'S the Church I envision and that's the church I see in this new world."
