Dotson. For Reverend Junius B. Dotson, it took an actual breakdown during a funeral for him to realize he needed a reset. As he recalls his own journey through grief, depression, burnout, and emotional breakdown, Dotson is passionate about calling for a Soul Reset for pastors, church leaders, and all disciples of Jesus Christ. This is a 6-week churchwide study for everyone who moves at breakneck speed through their daily lives, often relying only on their own strength to bring God\u2019s kingdom on earth. Jesus shows us a different way, an easier, unforced rhythm of what kingdom work looks like. It\u2019s a balance of work, rest, play, worship, exercise, and eating well\u2014spiritual practices that keep our souls hydrated and healthy as we do the work of the church in the world.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nccumc-hl.mimas.opalsinfo.net\/bin\/search\/recDetailPage?rid=1548\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tending Body, Heart, Mind, and Soul: Following Jesus in Caring for Ourselves<\/a> by Mary Jane Gorman.

With sensitivity and warmth, Rob Renfroe explores the wilderness experience\u2014what it is, how we get there, why God allows it, and how we can get through it God\u2019s way so that we learn the lessons that can be learned only in the desolate seasons of life when we are totally dependent on God.

Why bother with the interpretive categories of biblical faith when in fact our energy and interest are focused on more immediate matters? The answer is simple and obvious. We linger because, in the midst of our immediate preoccupation with our felt jeopardy and our hope for relief, our imagination does indeed range beyond the immediate to larger, deeper wonderments. Our free-ranging imagination is not finally or fully contained in the immediacy of our stress, anxiety, and jeopardy. There is more than that and other than that to our life in God\u2019s world.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources Not in the Media Center<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cokesbury.com\/Switch-Off\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Switch Off: The Clergy Guide to Preserving Energy and Passion for Ministry<\/a> by Heather Bradley Enterprises, LLC, Miriam Grogan.
