90. Dr. Terry Wardle – Leadership Dysfunction as a Symptom of Emotional Disruption
Manage episode 304053451 series 2794866
Dr. Wardle has served as a Church Planter, Seminary President, Professor, Author, and International Speaker. Today he directs the Institute of Formational Counseling, Healing Care Ministries, and Healing Care Ministries International. During his own season of deep brokenness while leading a great Christian organization, Dr. Wardle met Christ as he never had before. Dr. Wardle leverages this transformational encounter to see similar transformations in thousands of leaders worldwide.
Our conversation takes us into the following:
Terry’s faith story from meteoric rise in ministry to sitting in an inpatient psychiatric institution.
How his spiritual giftings hid all the pain of an unresolved past.
Amazing successes to immediate deep depression and agoraphobia (irrational fear and panic of being in crowds).
How professional competencies do not indicate a person’s health.
At 5 years of age Terry watched his grandfather die less than three feet away from him. The next year he woke up next to his grandmother who had died in her sleep.
Anger and achievement give the illusion it can still the storm of fear.
Neurobiologically when we are wounded, we are wounded episodically; therefore we must be healed episodically.
Why simply reading or memorizing Scripture often fails to change us.
Sometimes we use “spiritual pain killers” in hopes of escaping the pain.
How dysfunctional behavior is a symptom of emotional disruption.
What is true is conceptual. What is real is episodic. How these differences give huge insights.
Shame is the basic sense that I don’t measure up.
An effective ministry demands we have an authentic life.
Identity is not about competency but having a clear self-definition.
Identity is not what makes you unique. Identity is the foundation on which uniqueness rests.
Workaholism in ministry is not a matter of theology; it’s a matter of pathology.
It’s not achievement that changes a life; it’s awakening that changes a life.
Dysfunctional patterns come from loss, lies, and wounds.
How to know you have grieved losses appropriately and sufficiently.
The language of emotion is uncensored. The language of cognition is sterilized and guarded.
The importance of lamenting and imprecatory Psalms for healing and transformation.
