An Intimate Conversation for Ministry CEOs

Description

When Your Calling Becomes Your Crisis

You answered a call to serve and make a difference. But somewhere along the journey, the mission that once filled you with purpose now feels overwhelming. Donor relationships are strained, staff turnover is increasing, and persistent anxiety keeps you awake wondering if you’re the right person for this role. You’re carrying more than a job—you’re carrying a calling. And right now, it feels incredibly heavy.

You Are Not Alone

When I founded LCP Global in 2010, my heart was set on creating “a world well led.” But leading in ministry and not-for-profit brings unique challenges the business world rarely understands.

In When Leaders Are Lost, I wrote about what happens when life and ministry don’t go as planned—when boards question your vision, funding falls short, and you question whether you’re hearing God’s voice clearly. You’re stewarding a sacred trust.

What We’ll Explore Together

Through research with 3,000+ leaders, I’ve identified 5 Leadership Anchors that help leaders find their way back to purpose and peace:

• • Rebuilding Sacred Community – Finding true support when relationships feel transactional

• • Redefining Success – Measuring impact that honours both calling and wellbeing

• • Living Values Under Pressure – Staying grounded when compromise feels easier

• • Reclaiming Your Story – Silencing doubt and rediscovering God’s narrative for your leadership

• • The Next 90 Days – Practical steps forward when you’re unsure where God is leading

The Sacred Struggle

This isn’t about building bigger organisations or raising more funds. It’s about the deeply personal journey of leading when you feel spiritually dry, relationally wounded, and uncertain about your calling. It’s about finding your way back to the leader God created you to be.
