Toby Slough and Goby Ministries provides pastors and their church families practical tools to help parents connect God’s power to the very real issues of anxiety, depression and general feelings of being overwhelmed that so many are experiencing.
Parents around the country are having conversations about their kids’ mental wellness in car pick up lines, around coffee tables and in their neighborhoods. We believe the parents in your church family are having the same conversations. Goby Ministries can help you help your families and create outreach opportunities for your communities with our messages, books and free tools.

Toby has honed a message for staff members about the importance of taking care of your mental wellness in ministry along with practical ways of supporting your church family in this area as well.
