About
"This book invites religious leaders to tap the responsive and contagious vitality of faith. Professional practice, if creative, will be spontaneous and lively. Pastors may lose their inherent resilience by focusing attention and expending energy in ways that deplete the soul. Michael Koppel shows how to reclaim one's "internal misfit" recovering those qualities, characteristics, and skills that God has gifted to each person and community in order to lead more freely and effectively in ministry. Conforming to or resisting external demands leads to disheartenment, while the practice of play empowers, restores, and heals. Dr. Koppel charts a course for you to develop or rediscover your style of faithfully engaged leadership." --Book Jacket.
