You who are called by God. We know you have heard it.
Someone saying surely you misheard. That you don’t know what you are doing. You see the problems in the Church and the world, and you are ready with thoughtful and creative ways forward.
They may say you are too young. Too old. Too busy raising children. Or too single. Too ambitious. Driven. Too distracted. Too much.
They miss out on seeing you. The full you. The person God is calling to this work. This episode offers encouragement and a blessing for those days when you remember your calling. Learn more, here.

"You're feeling vocational grief." 3MMM Host Eileen Campbell-Reed shares this realization, and what it meant for her. In this episode, an excerpt from our All Saints Day Virtual Service, we invite you to take time to honor your loss and grief. 
You may want to gather up a piece of paper and a marker or pen. As you listen, let yourself pay attention to your own spiritual well-being by giving a little space to your vocational losses and grief. The prayer offered by Kali Cawthon-Freels gives voice to the #vocationalgrief many ministers and leaders have shared.

How do women thrive in ministry? Eileen Campbell-Reed explores this question by imagining a future where women in ministry are thriving - 5 "future stories" that look like this:  
Women  thrive  in  ministry  because  churches  pay  equitably
Women  thrive  in  ministry  because  leadership  is  collaborative. 
Women  thrive  in  ministry  when  men  focus  on  care  for  themselves  and  all  people.
Women  thrive  in  ministry  because  we  are  not  so  angry  all  the  time.  
Women  thrive  in  ministry  because  child  well -being  is  normative,  expected, and  funded.
Listen in to this episode that explores how men caring for their well-being and mental health affects flourishing in ministry for women and LGBTQIA+ clergy. Learn more.
