HEALTHY SEMINARIANS + HEALTHY CHURCHES = A HEALTHIER WORLD!

We equip seminarians, clergy, and people of faith to explore practical ways of living into greater wellbeing through education, research, and advocacy. HSHC recognizes that theological students and clergy often face significant challenges to their health (physically, mentally, spiritually, relationally, and beyond). We seek to raise awareness by offering practical tools and equipping church leaders to become agents of transformation within their communities. In all things — curricula, culture, and ethos — HSHC prioritizes health both pedagogically and practically, cultivating habits of wholeness at every level.

Today is the FINAL DAY to donate to our 10 Days + 5 Senses campaign! 📦✨

Over the past 10 days, we’ve explored how small, daily micro-habits can help improve our wellbeing. Today, as our 8th annual fall fundraiser comes to a close, we are asking for your help to make a final, lasting macro-impact.

Leading a ministry takes a toll in energy, empathy, and resilience. Every single day, faith leaders, clergy, and theological students pour themselves into caring for the spiritual and emotional needs of others, often while lacking the tools and support systems required to protect their wellbeing.

When you invest in a leader’s health, you strengthen the vitality, endurance, and long-term health of the entire community they serve.

Your generous contribution directly powers:
🌱 Free & Accessible Wellness Resources: Practical toolkits and programs tailored for theological students, clergy, and faith community members.
🤝 Community of Support: Ongoing connection and whole-person care to sustain leaders for the journey ahead.
📚 Research & Advocacy: Data-driven efforts focused on nurturing healthier faith communities.

Help us finish strong so our wellness drawer remains fully stocked!

Small Micro-Habits. Lasting Macro-Impact.

Thank you for helping us surround clergy, students, and faith leaders with the lasting encouragement and tools required to sustain their ministries. Donate today to help us finish stocking the drawer! 💛

3 DAYS LEFT to Stock the Drawer! 📦✨

There are only 3 days left in our annual fall fundraising campaign, and we are asking you to consider helping us cross the finish line!

Ministry takes energy, heart, and dedication. Every day, theological students, clergy, and faith leaders pour so much into carrying the needs of their communities, and they deserve the same practical care and support in return.

When we care for the health and endurance of our leaders, we strengthen the whole church.

Every gift helps to provide educational opportunities and wellness resources, a community of support, and research to build healthier ministry cultures nationwide.

Help us keep our drawer fully stocked for current and future leaders!

Thank you for helping our leaders grow more fully into the vocation to which God has called them. 💛

Day 5: We’re officially halfway there! 📦✨

Thanks to the incredible generosity of supporters across the country, we have raised more than half of our fall fundraising goal!

Over the last five days, you’ve stepped up to help us Stock the Drawer for theological students, clergy, and faith leaders nationwide.

Ministry leadership requires tremendous energy, empathy, and resilience. Leaders carry emotional and spiritual challenges every single day — often without the practical tools or support needed to avoid isolation and burnout. When we invest in a leader’s health, we strengthen the vitality and long-term health of the entire community they serve.

Every gift given directly funds:
🌱 Free, easy-to-use resources for physical, mental, and spiritual health.
🤝 Ongoing community connection and whole-person support for the journey ahead.
📚 Research and advocacy focused on nurturing healthier faith communities.

With 5 days remaining, help us keep the momentum going so resources are fully stocked whenever a leader seeks greater wellbeing for themselves and those they serve!

As political polarization deepens across our country, many pastors find themselves caught between their own convictions and the political dynamics of their congregations.

If you or a leader you know is navigating these complex waters, you aren't alone.

Join the Common Table Collaborative for a virtual gathering featuring researcher David Eagle from the Duke Clergy Health Collaborative.

Drawing from a study of 648 clergy, Dr. Eagle will explore how political mismatch drives congregational conflict and occupational distress — and how we can move forward with hope and resilience.

Discovery Opportunities:
- New findings on political mismatch, conflict, and clergy well-being.
- Why certain leaders experience greater feelings of mismatch than others.
- How churches and denominational leaders can cultivate healthier practices of dialogue, formation, and care in divided times.

It’s a timely occasion to pause, reflect, and gather tools for building healthier, more resilient faith communities.

📍 Where: Virtual Gathering
🗓️When: Thursday, October 15th, 1:30-2:30pm ET

"What actually counts as ultra-processed food?" 🛒🤔

It seems like everyone is talking about UPFs right now, but trying to figure out what they are—and why they’re in almost everything on grocery store shelves—can feel overwhelming and incredibly confusing.

To help clear up the noise, Stanford Medicine broke down the essential science: what UPFs actually are, how they impact your gut and energy, and simple, realistic ways to navigate your diet without needing to overhaul your entire life overnight.
