What are the conditions of wellness, ?

Published: Wed, 11/23/22

Hello, !

What are the conditions of wellness that make life stable and meaningful?

This was a big question for me during the American Academy of Religion (AAR) in Denver, Colorado. Along with the Society for Biblical Literature (SBL), and other related publishers and groups, the meeting brings together close to 10,000 #religionnerds, #biblegeeks, and #theologyjunkies.

Some of the big topics we are thinking through this week.

What about conditions of wellness for women?
Grace Kao reminded us of something important she learned from Maria Schriver long ago.
I had a big realization about my own career.
A surprising new study about “work-life support

I’m always wondering and asking clergy questions about wellness. I wonder: How are you doing? How are you caring for your spiritual well-being?

We create and curate lots of resources to support your well-being. This month we are giving away three copies of Pastoral Imagination: Bringing the Practice of Ministry to Life. Winners will be selected from our 3MMM email list. We’ll announce the winners in early December.
