Today we have Dr. Vani Marshall back on the podcast! As most of you know, Dr Marshall is a cognitive therapist with a Doctorate in Counselling and a Masters in Psychology. She is also an Evangelist and Missionary with a passion to help people. Dr Marshall and I planned to do a Q and A of a number of questions from the audience for this episode but when she began unpacking her thoughts around avoiding burnout, we decided to narrow the focus of our discussion today instead of answering the other questions which we hope to get to in the future. In this episode, Dr Marshall talks about the need for rest and setting boundaries to prevent burnout. She provides practical advice for avoiding burnout while highlighting the importance of taking care of your spiritual, physical and mental health. We also discuss the effect this can have on the family and much more. ------------ Book discussed in the episode: The Self-Care Prescription by Robyn Gobin ------------ Subscribe to Dr Vani Marshall's YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@DrVaniMarshall ------------ Takeaways Rest and setting boundaries are crucial for avoiding burnout in ministry. Pastors and ministers should rotate duties, delegate tasks, and take scheduled time off. Prioritizing what is important over what is urgent is key to preventing burnout. Taking care of one's physical and mental health is essential in ministry. Setting boundaries and prioritizing self-care is crucial in ministry to avoid burnout. Blocking out important dates and times for family and personal rest is essential. Communication with senior leaders about family needs and ministry responsibilities is key. Courage and conviction are necessary to communicate boundaries and prioritize self-care. Burnout not only affects the individual but also has a significant impact on families and children. Prioritizing family and creating a safe and secure environment is essential for healthy ministry. ------------ Truth Radio App - https://linktr.ee/truthradioapp ----------- A new portion of the show is only available to those who have subscribed to FOWNTN - so make sure to check it out, they do offer a 7 day free trial for all new subscribers.

Today we are joined by AJ Holloway. He is a travelling Evangelist and a powerful preacher of the Gospel who ministers in the prophetic. He is also one of the hosts of The Miqra Podcast that I am a big fan of. We had a great conversation about his life and ministry, he shared about how he found peace and strength in God through great loss, we talked about the biggest challenge for leaders that he sees, a paradigm shift he had recently that changed his walk with God, and much more. ------------ The Miqra Podcast - https://linktr.ee/miqra.biblestudy ----------- Takeaways Spending time in prayer and studying the Word of God is crucial for developing a strong foundation for ministry. Trusting in God's timing and not being anxious about the future is essential for finding peace and strength in ministry. Seasons of loss can be challenging, but relying on God and acknowledging His presence can bring comfort and guidance. Introspection and taking time to ponder and meditate on God's Word and His plans can lead to a deeper understanding of His will. Acknowledging God in all aspects of life and ministry allows Him to direct our paths and bring about His plans. Prayer and faith can lead to unexpected miracles and solutions in difficult situations. The support and love of a church community can be a source of strength and healing in times of tragedy. Understanding righteousness as doing well for others can lead to a paradigm shift in how we live and interact with others. In a post-Christian society, it is important for Christians to be a light and hold the lines of truth with love. ---------- Truth Radio App - https://linktr.ee/truthradioapp ----------- A new portion of the show is only available to those who have subscribed to FOWNTN - so make sure to check it out, they do offer a 7 day free trial for all new subscribers.

We also discuss the meaning of justification and how it relates to salvation. --------- Truth Radio App - https://linktr.ee/truthradioapp ----------- A new portion of the show is only available to those who have subscribed to FOWNTN - so make sure to check it out, they do offer a 7 day free trial for all new subscribers.
