Authentic Self: Uncovering the Image of God in you.
For many of us we are facing a daunting task. The task of helping the next generation grapple with and find Jesus. That goal can be so hard at times because of the expectation placed on us. As we grapple with this task we tend to default to an event based program that has us running from one group to another hoping they are happy. Is it any wonder youth ministers burn out so quickly.
​
All of this makes it hard for most youth pastors to stop and take care of themselves. Then when you think about doing anything close to taking care of yourself, you feel something like PTSD from all the work you need to do to keep everyone pleased with you.
In this workshop first you will learn that you are not alone. We are all like you and we all know what its like to find ourselves burnt out and afraid. Second we will work to uncover the image of God placed in us from the dawn of time. Once you have a grasp on who God has made you to be, your confidence will rise and you will be inspired to live and minister from that space.
​What to expect:
