GA2026 - Giovy Sanders

Dr. Tim Maness and Dr. Jeff Sargent welcome Dr. Giovy Sanders to Pastoring on Purpose, live from the Church of God General Assembly. Inspired by her own experience as a pastor's wife, Giovy's doctoral research was on the mental health referral practices of clergy in the Church of God. Her research revealed a critical gap in how ministry leaders are equipped to recognize emotional and mental health challenges within their congregations. She talks about her research, as well as her new book, Navigating the Maze of Mental Health and Ministry.
