This project was designed to discern key factors to effective long-term pastorates. It included three main components: Biblical research on longevity in ministry, using as a model the life, ministry, and leadership of Moses; contemporary literature research on issues influential to longevity, in particular, the pastor's sense of 'calling'; and conducted field research with 48 pastors in the Christian Reformed Church in North America, the great majority of whom served long-term (15 years and more) in their current ministry leadership pastoral capacities. The research uncovered important insights into issues that affect a pastor's sense of belonging, partnership, and long-term sustainability of fruitful ministry.
