Living Well

Living Well is a program created by clergy for clergy to help reflect on life and ministry through the lens of health and wellness. It’s a journey of self-reflection and collaboration, exploring what it means to love God with all your heart, mind, strength, and soul.

Join a seven-month journey of reflection and renewal with monthly cohort gatherings and two retreats. Open to all pastors—licensed, commissioned, or ordained—you can earn 3.3 CEUs by completing the program. Cost is $350–$489 per retreat (based on location), with scholarships available.

Living Well is a seven-month program designed for you to:

Develop a holistic understanding of your life and ministry through a focus on personal healing and wholeness
Journey with other clergy who desire a deeper connection to God and one another.
Develop a personal development plan, which includes the steps you'd like to take to make incremental and significant improvements in the aspects of life and/or ministry that you've identified during the program.
Strengthen your faithfulness to Jesus and give you resources to walk more deeply with the Divine.

Living Well is centered around the Living Compass self-assessment, which helps you to understand how well you’ve been paying attention to the four areas of a holistic life:

Heart (emotions and relationships)
Soul (spirituality and rest/play)
Mind (vocation and organization)
Strength (care of body and stress)

This program is open to all clergy, both licensed and ordained. 3.3 CEUs will be offered.
