NEWSLETTER HUB 21 SEPTEMBER 2026
Many pastors carry a pace that feels normal until someone close to them finally says, “Something has to change.” In this week’s newsletter, I share the moment Dianne told me I was on the verge of losing my family — and the practical step leaders can take right now to protect their home life from the hidden cost of ministry. If you’ve ever felt torn between serving your church and staying present with your family, this will speak directly to you.
The Moment That Saved My Family
Around forty years ago, Dianne warned me I was on the verge of losing my family unless I changed my pace and priorities. In this week’s newsletter, I share the season that nearly cost me everything — and the one step leaders can take right now to protect their families from the hidden cost of ministry.
Hey %FIRSTNAME%
This one is personal.
Around forty years ago my wife Dianne sat me down and told me plainly if I did not change something, I was going to lose my entire family.
She was right, and the moment changed the course of my life and ministry.
In my latest training I open up about the season I nearly lost everything and why willpower, boundaries and discipline weren’t sufficient.
Your family may be paying too high a price for your church leadership.
In this training I lay out the one step you can take this week to start protecting your own family before it is too late.
If you have ever felt the tension between serving faithfully and staying present at home, this is for you.
John
