In this deeply personal memoir, Rev. Dr. Marcia Neveu opens the door on a question that many ministers carry silently - and never dare to speak aloud.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMinistry in My Own Mind: A Story of Quiet Strength in Leadership is not a theological treatise. It is not a manual for ministry success. It is a mirror - honest, sometimes confronting, and ultimately liberating. With clarity and pastoral warmth, Rev. Dr. Neveu traces her decades of faithful service as a Pentecostal minister, exploring what it means to lead, preach, teach, and pour out when your brain is wired differently from those around you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross nineteen chapters, she writes candidly about literal thinking in a figurative church world, sensory overload behind the pulpit, the quiet exhaustion of masking in ministry, the grief of inconsistency when intention and capacity do not match, the long road to naming and understanding autism, and the slow, sacred journey toward leading as her whole, unedited self.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is not a book about a diagnosis. It is a book about faithfulness - the kind that keeps showing up, keeps serving, keeps believing, even when the room does not quite fit. It is for every minister who has overthought a sermon long after the service ended. For every leader who has smiled through sensory overload. For every believer who has wondered whether their difference disqualifies them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach chapter closes with a Closing Reflection and a Reflection Prompt, making this equally powerful for personal devotion, ministerial development, or small group discussion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRev. Dr. Neveu ministers between Birmingham, UK and Ghana, West Africa. She is the founder of the School of Ministerial Excellence (SME) and the Asantoa Foundation, and the author of more than twenty-five books in the areas of Christian living, ministry, and theology. Her ministry motto - Live Full. Pour Out. Die Empty. - defines every page of this work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf someone had told her sooner that she was not broken - just wired differently - this book might not have needed to be written. But it does need to exist. Because someone is still waiting to hear it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"REV Dr Marcia Neveu","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47882913480855,"sku":"9781905028665","price":1372.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781905028665.webp?v=1781098016","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/ministry-in-my-own-mind-a-story-of-quiet-strength-in-leadership-9781905028665","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
