Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership

Navigating the pressures and responsibilities of ministry with the complexity of the rest of our lives is an ever present challenge for leaders. We so appreciated the Biblical wisdom and insight offered in Ruth Haley Barton’s book Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership: Seeking God in the Crucible of Ministry, that we asked her and InterVarsity Press if we could share a portion of this resource with you.

Ruth Haley Barton is co-founder and president of The Transforming Center, a ministry dedicated to caring for the souls of pastors, ministry leaders and the congregations they serve. A teacher, spiritual director, and retreat leader, Ruth is the author of several books including Sacred Rhythms: Arranging Our Lives for Spiritual Transformation, and Invitation to Solitude and Silence.

We hope you find this resource food for your soul. We also hope that you might consider joining us at our Arts Conference, WONDER , June 10-12, where Ruth will be leading two sessions for leaders; The Art and Practice of Discernment and Spiritual Rhythms in the Life of a Leader.
