Help ­your ­pastor­ to­ thrive

SUSTAINING LEADERSHIP
You are more important than your Ministry
By Paul Swann
BRF 158 pages. £8.99
ISBN 978 0 857 466 518

Paul Swann served in two Anglican parishes in the Diocese of Worcester. In 2008, he retired early and spent two years existing on what he describes as ‘Planet Fragile’. Sustaining Leadership is his story, but much more.

In Part I, Swann describes the process of his own disintegration as he slipped into that slough of physical, mental and emotional despond we call ME.
