- Abstract
- Frequent transition and burnout are companions of ministers today, and the pressures of ministry and secondary stress have a negative impact on pastors as they lead. The literature focuses on spiritual self-care for ministers, overlooking the value and simplicity of the pastor caring for himself physically. In order to help pastors sustain leadership in local church ministry, physical self-care practices were identified which contributed to pastors sustaining themselves in leadership. The findings of this study were that pastors who engaged in physical self-care practices may be better equipped to endure stress and challenges in ministry. Physical self-care also supports a holistic view of life, in agreement with biblical theology, while restoring personhood to pastors instead of reducing their identity to a role.
