We are delighted that you are here!
Three Minute Ministry Mentor (3MMM) offers weekly resources for learning and deepening your practice of ministry. Our weekly episodes will both inform and inspire your learning for the sake of ministry. Each week we invite you to take time to notice, appreciate, and wonder how you are growing and changing as a ministry leader.
We think ministry learning matters because it shapes how you respond to a broken and beautiful world with love and justice. In other words, we invite you to be on this journey of embodying pastoral imagination for your work in the world.
Every week, Season Four of 3MMM brings you a combination of videos, author interviews, featured ministers, questions for reflection, and lots more! Additionally we love giving away cool ministry stuff, so watch for it! If you sign up today you will receive free download about grief, access to the State of Clergywomen, and more!
