Becoming a Healthier Pastor

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Pastors and church leaders are struggling with the demands of their vocation in a changing society. Ron Richardson presents family systems theory work — in a very understandable language — as a tool to improve emotional and social health. Readers will understand themselves and their relationships better and learn to manage relationships in a more healthy and effective way.”

Healing Bodies and Souls

Church Leadership & Ministry

“These are simple stories with profound potential for the church and for health care. The future of health care is in the hands of the community and its residents. At this time, individuals are searching for ways to put their faith into action. So much of health and healing is about education and self-care and those needs are not being met by the current system of health care. Meeting those needs is the work of the church and the members of the body of Christ — a way to put faith in to action. This book tells stories that inspire and gives the basic guidelines for action.”
