About Dr. Cheryl A. Perkins
Dr. Cheryl A. Perkins — publicly known as Dr. C.A. Perkins — is the Chaplain of Avodah Dynamics. With decades of pastoral, counseling, and teaching experience, she carries the soul-care mandate of the ecosystem: making sure that builders who are shipping hard also stay whole.
Her ministry sits at the intersection of biblical wisdom and clinical care, helping leaders integrate prayer, honest self-examination, and practical mental-emotional health into a sustainable rule of life.
What she carries
As Chaplain of Avodah Dynamics, Dr. Perkins oversees the pastoral, prayer, and counsel dimensions of the ecosystem. She writes and teaches on burnout recovery, Christian marriage, generational healing, sabbath, and the interior disciplines that keep leaders standing.
She is the mother of founder Karl A. Perkins and mother-in-law of co-founder Sheree N. Perkins, and functions as a spiritual mother to the wider Avodah community.
Voice and focus
Her voice is pastoral, precise, and unafraid to name what most leaders avoid — pride, exhaustion, unhealed pain, and the quiet cost of unattended souls. She writes for builders who want to finish well, not just start loud.
"You cannot pour out what you have not tended. Builders finish well when their souls are cared for as carefully as their calendars."
