Have you ever thought about the lifestyle habits and practices of high-impact pastors throughout church history?

How did they manage the demands of ministry, family and schedules – with ALL the responsibilities that we have as pastors?

Whether you have been in ministry for decades or are just now answering the call, we all wrestle with making decisions on a daily basis that affect our ministries and our personal lives.

What has become clear to me more recently is that we aren’t the first church leaders to face these challenges – and we can learn a great deal from those pastors who have come before us.

But just how was this wisdom documented – and is it collected anywhere that we can easily refer to daily?

Turns out you didn’t have a single source for pastoral success secrets. You couldn’t access all this practical wisdom in one place . . . .until now.

As I’m coming up on 25 years in ministry, it occurred to me to dust off my 3 shelves of pastors manuals that I’ve collected since answering the call. These manuals span over 1,400 years of Christian ministry!

What I’ve decided to do is sift through the very best ideas from all of them and UPDATE these do’s and don’ts for today’s pastors. I then added even more collective wisdom from my 25 years of experience in ministry and lessons from over 2500 pastors that I have coached personally.

The result: THE comprehensive guide to being a pastor in modern times! 

And I’m excited to share it ALL with you at a brand new, one-time event at Disney World this October called simply,The 25 Seminar: Uncovering the Lost Secrets of Pastoral Ministry Success.

Get ready to learn EVERYTHING  about being a successful pastor today – that you didn’t learn in Seminary!
