We are excited for our series, Chew on This! Spend your lunch break learning and sharing (and eating) as you listen to our guest presenter. The Chew on This series will alternate months with our VBWIM online Coffee Break.
Our next Chew on This presentation will take place on March 19 at noon via Zoom with Rev. Dr. Victoria Atkinson White, author of Holy Friendships: Nuturing Relationships That Sustain Pastors and Leaders. Victoria is no stranger to Virginia Baptists and VBWIM, having worked as a chaplain at Westminster Canterbury in Richmond as well as minister to alumni at BTSR. She currently shares her gifts at Leadership Education at Duke Divinity.
From the back of her book… “Pastors and church leaders serve more effectively when they are part of an intimate community of colleagues and friends who care about their personal and professional well-being.” So says Victoria Atkinson White in Holy Friendships: Nurturing Relationships That Sustain Pastors and Leaders. Yet many leaders sacrifice critical relationships, ending up isolated or burned out. By using revealing stories to illumine the benefits of challenging yet living-giving conversations, White offers hope and grace as she invites Christian leaders to consider developing sacred relationships that are deeply formed in God’s love.”
You are invited to bring your lunch to eat during our time together. Feel free to invite anyone you think would benefit from the conversation to join us.
