Programs for your Ministry
In The Emotionally Healthy Church, Peter Scazzero writes:
The overall health of any church or ministry depends primarily on the emotional and spiritual health of its leadership. In fact, the key to successful leadership has much more to do with the leader’s internal life than with the leader’s expertise, gifts or experience.
So how is your internal life? How is your soul? How is the soul of your team or organization? Through speaking, training, writing, and networking, Restoring the Soul existes to equip the body by helping leaders attend to and grow in their inner lives.
Restoring the Soul Offers Messages to Strengthen
…the Soul of Leaders
…the Soul of Organizations

What does it mean to really love God with our heart and not just “do the Christian life”? What comples us in our spirituality? Paul earnestly stated that, “Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all and therefore all died” (2 Cor. 5:14-15). If we are honest, we are often compelled by things like drivenness, insecurity, jealousy, anger, even shame. In Christ we are invited to a freeing journey of living from the heart. What might this look like? This message explores “postures our heart must take” which include humility, receptivity, trust, attentiveness, intentionality, perseverance, and grace.
