Nourishment
Serving as a spiritual leader requires constant nourishment. As individuals and leaders within a community of faith, our journeys may bring us to milestones at differing times, may cause us to choose unfamiliar paths, or bring us together in unexpected ways. Through it all, sustenance is necessary.
Along the Road Podcast
Ministry in the church can be life-giving and life-changing and, in the midst of it, we all need faithful companions along the road. The third season of Along the Road – a podcast on faith and leadership for ministry leaders of the PC(USA) - is available now. Nourish episodes, available every other week, are geared specifically to ruling elders and deacons. Stream episodes on your favorite streaming service or get more information and listen here.
Webinar Series
As ruling elders and deacons serving in local congregations across the denomination, webinars give us an opportunity to gather together virtually and in the presence of other leaders who walk alongside us on this formation journey. Recording of past webinars are available for viewing while news of upcoming webinars will be posted here as information is available.
