What does it take to stay the course in ministry?
In a world where burnout, disillusionment, and systemic challenges often derail even the most committed leaders, Twelve Lessons on Stickability in Ministry offers wisdom for flourishing over the long haul. Drawing on more than three thousand years of combined experience from over a hundred seasoned practitioners, Sally Nash explores the practices, relationships, and theological insights that sustain a lifetime of service.
Through twelve practical lessons - rooted in research and enriched by real-life stories - this book addresses the realities of ministry: identity and vocation, spiritual rhythms, boundaries, vulnerability, lament, resilience, and lifelong learning. Each chapter invites reflection and offers tools for navigating the joys and struggles of leadership with integrity and hope.
Whether you are starting out, facing challenges, mentoring others, or seeking renewal, this is a resource to return to again and again. Honest, compassionate, and deeply practical, it reminds us that stickability is not about gritting our teeth - it's about cultivating habits and communities that enable us to thrive.
