What Comes After Seminary? Spiritual Health, Burnout, and Growth in Ministry | Lifelong Learning
What happens after seminary? And how do ministry leaders keep growing in the midst of challenge, change, and burnout?
In this episode, Calvin Theological Seminary’s Dr. Aaron Einfeld, Director of Lifelong Learning at Calvin Theological Seminary, and Wendy Fisher, Associate Director of Lifelong Learning, join Leah Jolly, ThM Student, to share how the Lifelong Learning program equips pastors and Christian leaders for long-term spiritual and vocational health. With practical insights from adaptive leadership training, formation-based retreats, and their own upcoming podcast season, they unpack what it really means to be a lifelong learner in ministry.
🌱 Topics include:
Supporting ministry leaders beyond graduation
Preventing burnout and navigating anxiety
Replenishing the soul of the leader
Embracing change as a path to spiritual growth
Building a culture of learning in the local church
Whether you're in full-time ministry or just starting seminary, this episode will help you reflect, recalibrate, and reconnect with your calling.
