Rev. Courtney Clayton Jenkins’ book, Stepping Back to Step Up, has helped thousands of women in varying forms of ministry to regain a sense of balance and strengthen their leadership through guidance in five key areas of leadership.

This Participant’s Guide features discussion questions for each of the six areas covered, highlighted quotes from the video, additional notes and personal reflection at the end of each section. It is intended to facilitate extra discussion and cast light on what it means to serve God, be a leader and, most of all, and find balance between your calling and your personal life.
