Back of House: The Systems That Sustain Ministry
Season 4, Episode 1 - Back of House: The Systems That Sustain Ministry
In this episode of The Clergy Wellness Podcast, we explore the back of house—the systems, structures, and rhythms that support sustainable ministry. From follow-up and discipleship to leadership development and pastoral care, we look at what keeps ministry healthy behind the scenes. We also tackle the difficult reality of people slipping out the back door—and how we can respond with grace and intention.
You’ll learn:
- Why clear systems reduce burnout
- How to build a layered discipleship path
- What sustainable pastoral care looks like
- Strategies to empower lay leaders
- How to care for people before they disappear
This episode is for pastors who want to lead well without doing it all. When your back of house is strong, your ministry—and your wellness—can thrive.
