Another member is scheduled for surgery. Yet another member is having marital problems.\nJust another day in the life of a congregation.\n\nChurch leaders (both clergy and lay) give immeasurable comfort and nourishment to those in need. But it sometimes leaves them drained, stressed, and wounded. Feed My Shepherds addresses the struggles and burnout experienced by those in caregiving ministries and offers practical tips for practicing healthy spirituality.\n\"While all Christians need nurture, the active leader who encounters spiritual and emotional stress daily has special, urgent needs,\" writes Wuellner. \"If the shepherd is not fed along with the sheep, that inner hunger and fatigue, those unhealed hurts can cause the shepherd to do great, unconscious harm to those within his or her care.\"\n\nBy looking at the intense, healing relationship between the risen Jesus and his disciples, Wuellner offers a paradigm of healing for today's disciples as well. She draws on scriptures from the Gospels' post-Resurrection narratives and adds spiritual reflections, personal questions, and guided meditations that can meet a variety of needs.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0835808106\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.0835808106.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Wuellner, Flora Slosson\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in good condition with very minimal damage.
