Topic: IMPORTANT LESSONS FOR THE EMOTIONAL HEALTH OF THE LEADER
All church leaders experience successive waves of intense and sometimes traumatic situations. Over time these experiences can take a serious mental and emotional toll on a leader. Leaders, seeking to work through such pain can develop unhealthy patterns for addressing their emotional life. You will hear the story of a real person’s experience of decades of trauma and his journey of recovery. Listeners will learn important lessons that can help them begin to recognize and care for their emotional health from a biblical perspective.
BIO: Greg Faulls, Ph.D. has been the Senior Pastor of Bellevue Baptist Church, Owensboro, Kentucky for over 26 years. In addition, he serves on the faculty of Liberty University’s Rawlings School of Divinity where he serves as an Associate Professor of Practical Studies. Greg and his wife, Stefanie, have four children, and one grandchild. He has been in the vocational ministry for 37 years and served as a lead pastor for 33 of those years. He is passionate about church leadership and building churches that have strong gospel witness. After experiencing years of the wear and tear of life and ministry, personal emotional health has become a focus of his personal journey as well as his leadership in the church.
