It’s hard to stay on top of the many leadership and productivity articles published each week. To help you become the best leader possible, here are three articles I found helpful this week:

“Too many church leaders serve out of exhaustion. But leaders need margin. It’s crucial for healthy ministries. I’m sharing six ways to build it into your life so you can be more fruitful in ministry.”

2 Complaints Boring Sermons Create (And How to Avoid Getting Them) by Brian Dodd
