Abstract
  • The author researched issues within the church's professional ministry relative to the spiritual formation and nurture of pastors, clergy self-care, and the vocational development of clergy throughout their years of service. Using both a case study and survey format, he examined the sabbatical/study-leave as 1) a specific expression of the biblical notions of Sabbath rest and the sabbatical year, and 2) as one instrument among many for the fostering of greater spiritual vitality within the clergy. The study raised significant questions for the church regarding the spiritual equipping and strengthening of clergy for their designated role as pastoral leaders within the Body of Christ.
