ADF Chaplains Seminar–HMAS Stirling–Western Australia- 5-8 November 2012

I have enjoyed meeting and working with the Western Regional ADF chaplains at HMAS Stirling. Again the area of Moral Injury sparked lots of discussion. We looked at the conscious and sub-conscious processes at work in PTSD and Moral Injury and began some reflection on forgiveness, reconciliation and moral repair.

Today we shifted focus to leadership and systems theory and finished with some work on self care in ministry.

Links to all the notes follow.

We looked first at the nature of pastoral ministry in the context of chaplaincy and then explored the differences between Post Traumatic Stress and Moral Injury. Some good discussion on moral repair, forgiveness and justice followed. Tomorrow we look at leadership practices and processes for systemic health.

Welcome

Welcome to ‘the johnmark extension’, my current primary website. If you have attended a seminar or training day that I have facilitated, the notes and resources should be linked below in my ministry blog.

The ‘johnmark extension’ provides leadership training in a wide range of areas oriented toward the professional learning of pastors and the leaders of Christian and not for profit organisations. See the areas in which I am currently teaching and training
Leadership Development Workshops.

Many of these resources have also been shared on
The Christian Leadership Exchange

Developed out of our mentoring training, the MEQ course, which is offered in a range of formats from ACT accredited through to workshop based short courses, there is a resources site for leaders who mentor others. Check out resources on The Mentor Exchange

Over recent years teaching skills in Conflict Management has become an area in its own right for me. Find conflict resources and training in peacemaking here:
