Here’s our weekly list of what we’ve found helpful online:

Ministry Spark had a post on anxiety and depression in ministry. This is a real thing that doesn’t seem to get talked about much. This post reminds readers, “Ministry is hard,” I would gloriously hard, but hard none the less. Then the author goes on to list ways to protect ourselves from anxiety and depression. If you are involved in ministry - in any capacity, for any length of time - you will find this list helpful.

Scott Kedersha had a post on giving encouragement. It reads, “We often believe lies from the enemy because we lack encouragement, ignore the encouragement of others, or because our hearts have been hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.” He goes on to list several helpful things to keep in mind when seeking to encourage someone.

Sam Luce had a post on the topic of kid’s capacity. He believes they can handle more than most adults generally give them credit for. The post lists 6 ideas to keep in mind when sharing hard truth with kids.
