Time Management
Time is one thing you can’t make up. That’s why time management is so crucial, especially as a pastor. Here’s a post with a couple of resources from a good friend Nick Poole on organizing your day. Now here’s a copy of my weekly schedule with an emphasis on the main objectives of each day.
Sunday – Service Day (obviously the main focus of Sunday is the ministry within the services)
Monday – Spouse Day (this day is dedicated to my beautiful bride Vanessa)
Tuesday – Staff Day (meeting, planning and administrating is the focus of the day)
Wednesday – Study Day (preparation for our midweek prayer service and Sunday’s message)
Thursday – Support Day (writing newsletters, raising funds and following up with supporters)
Friday – Strategy Day (dreaming and creative planning for the future)
Saturday – Sabbath Day (relaxing and preparing my heart and mind for Sunday)
I realize that your schedule will not look like mine and each day’s theme will probably not start with the letter “s” (I can’t help it…alliteration is always on my mind). However, creating a schedule is absolutely necessary for maximum effectiveness. If you don’t schedule your time then your time will schedule you. Hope this may help!
