S3 Ep88: Dr. Chris Adams on How to Take a Sabbatical, Part 2
Part 2 of a compelling conversation, on how sabbatical know-how. Your host, Margie Bryce, and guest Rev. Dr. Chris Adams from Biola University illuminate the significance of a sabbatical as a powerful tool for rejuvenation. But the relief doesn't end there - we also reveal how to gradual re-entry to work can save you from feeling overwhelmed, guiding you towards a softer landing back into ministry.
Moreover, our conversation ventures into the beautiful tension between structure and spontaneity during a sabbatical. We explore the significance of humility in accepting advice and fostering self-care, leaving room for God to move and speak, and striking that perfect balance between meticulous planning and serendipitous moments. Margie shares her personal experiences with sabbaticals and their profound benefits. Support the show
This is a GUILT-FREE zone! So here's your friendly nudge about self-care and its importance for the sake of your family, friends, and those you serve in ministry.
I love scouring around to find great content to share, and am always interested in feedback, OR if you are or know of someone willing to share their Back from Burnout story so we can all learn together, then CLICK HERE to email me.
And, if this is a reminder you wish to opt out of, that's fine too.
Blessings on your journey!

Hey there, Margie Bryce here bringing you the Crabby Pastor podcast, and I don't think you're going to be too surprised to know that it's too easy today to become the Crabby Pastor. Our time together will give you food for thought to help you be the ministry leader, fully surrendered to God's purposes and living into whatever it takes to get you there and keep you there. And we're talking about sustainability in ministry.
Hey there, before we get started on today's episode, I want to give you this opportunity to enhance your self-care. Part of self-care is having another individual come alongside you whether you're looking at a coach, a spiritual director, or whatever means you have, so that you're not walking this journey alone, alone, that you have another person walking with you, and that is the ministerial coaching initiative. I've been a part of that now for this past year and as a coach, I have enjoyed walking alongside ministry leaders.
This is a Lilly Foundation grant that provides coaching through Point Loma Nazarene, their Center for Pastoral Leadership. So, what I'm going to do is put a link in the show notes for where you can go to get more information. You know, tell them the Crabby Pastor sent you. They'll laugh about that but tell them that I sent you. So, this is one of the avenues where I provide coaching for ministry leaders, and you know I do it independently as well and through several other places. I wanted to offer this to you because you know maybe you'd like to try coaching and maybe you'd like to make a commitment to do this is eight sessions and there is a cost involved. It's a good deal because I'm always above a good deal, always.
So you know if you're going to try coaching, you don't want to try it on just once. You know I'm going to have one session to see how it goes. I think you're at least going to benefit from three to four to get a sense of whether it's a good fit
