Do you know someone struggling with mental health issues? I’m sure you do. Therefore, before getting to this week’s Top 10 list, I want to give you a heads up that MediShare is sponsoring a free mental health event for pastors and leaders called the Thrive & Cultivate Summit next week on May 21st and 22nd.
Speakers like Jon Acuff, Carlos Whittaker, Kay Warren, Greg Atkinson, and more will teach strategies to help you thrive in your leadership role while making sure that you’re taking care of yourself. Once again, the team at MediShare has made this 100% free and online and on-demand.
