Why This Ministry?

QWaters > About Us > Why This Ministry?

Why This MinistryQuietWaters Ministries knows that being a Christian leader can be inspiring, fulfilling and soul satisfying. But it can also be difficult and catapult you into a dangerous quagmire, sometimes all in the same day.

Clergy and their families are required to wear many hats and juggle many personal and professional relationships, while living in what feels like a fishbowl. This intense pressure can sink personal relationships with God, spouses, children, church leaders and congregants.

A noted survey of pastors reports that seventy-five percent (75%) of those surveyed reported having at least one significant crisis in their career due to stress.

Peter Drucker said the four hardest jobs in America are the president of the United States, a university president, a CEO of a hospital and a pastor.

Since 2001, QuietWaters Ministries has successfully helped hundreds of Christian leaders in personal and professional crisis. Through our Leadership Intensive Counseling program hosted at our beautiful Retreat Center in Parker, Colorado, we can help you get back in touch with God, renew your sense of call, restore your professional vision and priorities and strengthen your personal relationships.
