The Productive Pastor

As I've shared before, I am in the middle of a ministry transition. Over the last couple of weeks, I have been reflecting and planning on what it will look like at my new place of ministry. Taking the time to reflect during transitions or just show a level of personal responsibility for the lessons we learn in ministry and leadership can be a healthy thing.  I share what it means to move from theory land to action land.  Shownotes  Productive Pastor Community  Listen and Subscribe   Productive Pastor on iTunes | https://bit.ly/ProductivePastor Productive Pastor on Spotify | https://spoti.fi/3oIT5gf Chad on YouTube | https://bit.ly/RevChadBrooksYouTube Productive Pastor Email List | http://eepurl.com/hMfuGT

Hey Friends. We've made it to the end of season 1!!! That is really wild. I never could have imagined how awesome the podcast relaunch would be.  As we wrap this up, we focus in on our conversation about the role each day plays in our productivity.

The more purposeful, the more predictable.  That's the big takeaway for this episode. Our weeks are this time where we get the chance to be deeply purposeful AND be the pastors we are called to be. The two don't have to live in opposition of each other.  Have you picked up the season 1 workbook yet? Grab it right here.   Want the full shownotes? They are here   Listen and Subscribe   Productive Pastor on iTunes | https://bit.ly/ProductivePastor Productive Pastor on Spotify | https://spoti.fi/3oIT5gf Chad on YouTube | https://bit.ly/RevChadBrooksYouTube Productive Pastor Email List | http://eepurl.com/hMfuGT

So here is the thing about “the month”. It’s at this odd halfway point. We get things done at the monthly level, but what we get done, how we get them done, all of that is stepping stones towards our larger strategic practice of productivity.

You ready for the blue pill moment? What if I told you quarters aren't about a 3 month block, but instead a strategic block of time. They are a stratigic season where we get to decide if things need to be big or small.  Taking advantage of quarters means we can be intentional about the goals we have, the habits we are creating, the way we are measuring things and what we can genuinely be realistic about in life.
