Who Pastors the Pastor?

Who Pastors the Pastor?

Healthy churches are formed best by healthy pastors and leaders. While doing the work of ministry — preaching, teaching, counseling, and leading — it is easy for pastors and leaders to neglect the needs of their own lives and souls.

For 50 years, Emerge has been supporting, training, and counseling pastors, missionaries, and church leaders from all 50 states and around the world. We have a team of counselors, mental health professionals, and speakers who specialize in the needs of pastors and their families.
