When ministry seems to not be percolating the way you think it should be, how well do you handle it? Where do you file such a thing?

Here's a gritty and personal saga with a message for all of us.

So… what gets you crabby? Email me at margie@margiebrycecoaching.flywheelsites.com and your topic may be chosen for one of the podcasts… you may remain anonymous, or not… your choice.

For weekly encouragement join our sustainability community on Facebook. 

Reminder: I'm a coach, instructor, and former ministry leader who cares deeply about the challenges ministry leaders face today. I'm championing sustainability in ministry. I offer a variety of services: one-on-one coaching, group coaching, accountability groups, public speaker, and workshops. Find about more about me HERE.
