Ministry leaders spend their lives encouraging and supporting other people, yet we rarely have people in our own corner who pour into our lives. This workshop is designed for the leader who needs to really believe that God loves them dearly. In fact, He dotes on us. He sings over us. And He desires nothing more than for his partners in ministry to be confident, encouraged, supported and effective. This all begins with understanding how God truly sees us. Participants will look at Jeremiah 1:5 and Psalms 139 in order to begin the journey of accepting their acceptance.
