SUMMARY:Healthy Church Workshop - Turning Work Off & Identity Outside of Ministry
DESCRIPTION:Healthy Church Workshop – Turning Work Off & Identity Outside of Ministry\nNovember 3 | 9:30 – 11:00 am\n  \nDistrict Resource Center / Cross Oak Camp\n \nRegister Now!\n  \nThis 90-minute workshop is part 3 of a 4-part workshop series designed to address the very real challenges YOU told us you are facing. This is FREE for NWO Pastors and staff. Non-NWO can attend for $25. \n\nAlthough we never stop representing Jesus\, often the way we carry out our calling gets fuzzy as we sometimes allow highly motivated work ethics and strong desire for excellence to become our identity. This tends to be a common cultural trap the enemy uses repeatedly with those called to lead others. Beliefs about ourselves\, from our past\, about work and people-pleasing can begin to trump the reality of who we are in Christ. When we begin to ignore the warnings the Holy Spirit gives\, we find ourselves minimizing the very things we proclaim that others are to prioritize. This workshop will equip pastors\, staff and faith leaders with practical tools and processes to recalibrate boundaries\, manage a healthy life rhythm and remember true identity given by Christ! \nAttendees will: \n\n\nUncover unhealthy belief systems that hinder healthy identity and boundaries \n\n\nRecognize impact of values both at work and outside of work \n\n\nUnderstand the byproduct of modeling unhealthy vs healthy boundaries and rhythms of life to their teams and families \n\n\nIdentify connection points outside of ministry that positively influence ministry \n\n\n  \nRegister Now!

SUMMARY:Healthy Church Workshop - Family Stress & Unrealistic Expectations
DESCRIPTION:Healthy Church Workshop – Family Stress & Unrealistic Expectations\n \nMarch 9 | 9:30 – 11:00 am\n  \nDistrict Resource Center / Cross Oak Camp\n \nRegister Now!\n  \nThis 90-minute workshop is part 2 of a 4-part workshop series designed to address the very real challenges YOU told us you are facing. This is FREE for NWO Pastors and staff. Non-NWO can attend for $25. \n\nWhile there is often some level of stress in the family of God you lead\, the stress shepherds feel in their own family can be extremely burdensome. Sometimes the stress grows when the people you love the most do not share your values\, and fear\, shame and pain are carried privately. Other times the pressures of unresolved stress in your own home stem from schedules\, sickness\, or conflict that seem to not dissipate. When do personal expectations or those assumed from others in a shepherd’s home become unrealistic and unhealthy? This workshop will aim to reframe your mindset about family stress and equip you with practical tools to manage unrealistic expectations! \nAttendees will: \n\nGrow awareness of family systems theory in home and church\nRecognize how much of another’s story you are or are not responsible for\nEvaluate if stress is manageable for a season or unhealthy\nLearn to navigate assumed or explicit expectations from others\n\n  \nRegister Now!
