As a leader in ministry, you likely work under a good amount of stress and pressure. And not only are you owning the tasks at hand, but you are carrying a spiritual and emotional weight that is unique to your job. So how do you manage your own anxiety when having to deal with people? How does your reactivity reveal what's going on deep inside of you? What's the difference between caring for something and carrying something that isn't ours to carry?
There are so many practical tools that you will walk away with after listening to this conversation! One tool that Lisa gave was asking three questions:
1. What is mine to carry?
2. What is someone else's to carry?
3. What is God's to carry?
