Take Care of Yourself

"Paul urged Timothy to learn this vital principle when he was still young. It contains one of the keys in Christian work: If someone in ministry is not all right, the quality of their ministry will be affected. In Christian ministries, it is easy to find workers who never think of themselves. While selflessness is a Christ-like trait, at times we can push ourselves too far, leading to the paradigm of stressed and burn out people. In order to love God and serve others, we often need to be still, take a rest, and be refreshed. Take Care of Yourself will help Christians find the balance between ministry and "monastery," between the urgent work of service and the place of rest and restoration."--Publisher.
