Balance in Ministry: People, Projects, Paperwork, and the Pulpit
Send us a textIn this episode of Advancing the Cause, Executive Director Richard Bargas takes a practical and pastoral look at one of the ongoing challenges of ministry life—balancing people, projects, paperwork, and the pulpit. Using Scripture, real-life ministry experience, and even a chili cook-off gone wrong, Richard talks candidly about knowing your strengths and weaknesses, working hard without becoming a workaholic, stewarding your time well, and setting healthy boundaries. He also reminds us why prayer, people, and the faithful preaching of God’s Word must always remain at the center of our calling.
