What enables a school leader to remain steady when the demands of the role feel relentless?
Drawing on research, lived experience, and the spiritual heart of Catholic education, Faith, Flourishing & Wellbeing offers a hopeful and practical companion for principals and teachers seeking a more grounded way to live their vocation. Through the voices of educational leaders, Andrew Murray explores how faith, identity, and daily practices can renew clarity, steadiness, and joy.
“I commend Andrew in his writing of this book, which is a quiet but powerful testament to the truth that some journeys test you, and some relationships save you. Written with deep compassion and wisdom, it honours the lived realities of educators whose vocations are shaped as much by challenge as by grace. In weaving faith, flourishing and wellbeing together, this work stands as a generous acknowledgement that it is often community, relationships and a shared purpose that sustain us, and through which meaningful, life-giving leadership becomes possible.”

“Readable, wise, considered, energising, and faith-inspired, Andrew Murray offers paths to wellbeing for Catholic leaders, staff and individual teachers. This is a book of ideas and actions, of stories and practices that transform the workplace through building the quality of interaction, relationship and personal growth.”
