Ministry Mindset Booster: Getting to the Strengths-based Side of the Story

from $40.00

📅 [Zoom] Wednesday, November 12, 12:00-3:00 PM Central

You’re stretched thin, but not burned out. You’re still sharp enough to say, "We're not quite thriving—yet."

This is a moment of opportunity—to settle for that worn story you've heard yourself telling, or choosing to name and step into a more strengths-based and grace-filled perspective.

The Ministry Mindset Booster is a space to examine the story you’ve been telling, choose what to keep and reframe, and then practice living into narrative inline with God’s loving and abundant work.

In this interactive 3-hour experience, you’ll:

✅ Recognize Your Leadership Mindset – Identify the patterns of thought and action that are helping or hindering your ministry.
✅ Reframe Challenges Through Strengths – Shift from “making do” to seeing opportunities through a grace-filled lens.
✅ Notice the Spirit at Work – Cultivate spiritual awareness to discern God’s abundance in your leadership.
✅ Engage in Guided Reflection – Name what’s energizing you and what’s draining you—and adjust accordingly.
✅ Leave Refreshed & Reoriented – Walk away with a fresh elevator speech and practical strategies to exercise already this week.

Come learn a strengths-based framework and immediately put it into guided practice and discussion with others.

This isn’t just theory—it’s a hands-on, practical session designed to help you realign, recharge, and move forward with an open-hearted, strengths-based mindset.

💡 Bring a Friend & Save! (Use code FRIEND25 for 25% off when you register together.)

📢 Register for All Four Boosters and Save! Same format, new strengths-based skill. (Select All Boosters at registration for only $25 per event—nearly 40% off!).
