How to Survive and Thrive in Christian Ministry - Pablo Martinez

Join us as Pablo Martinez is interviewed by Peter Saunders, CEO and Founder of ICMDA, about his recent book Take Care of Yourself: Survive and Thrive in Christian Ministry and how Christian leaders can flourish in their work. To love God and serve others well, we often need to be still, rest, and be renewed. Listeners will learn what it means to care for their own ‘vineyard’—the talents, gifts, and emotional resources of their personality—so they can be effective ministry leaders.

Pablo Martinez was a European Leadership Forum Steering Committee member for more than 10 years. He currently works as a psychiatrist at a private practice in Barcelona. He has also developed an extensive itinerant ministry as a counsellor, speaker, and Bible teacher. He served as one of the vice-presidents of the International Christian Medical and Dental Association (ICMDA). He filled the role of President of the Spanish Evangelical Alliance (1999-2009) and Professor of Pastoral Theology at several theological institutions. His books have been published in 17 languages. His most recent works are Mad or God?: Jesus, the Healthiest Mind of All (Inter-Varsity Press, England, co-authored) and Take Care of Yourself: Survive and Thrive in Ministry (Hendrickson Publishers and DictumPress).
