In this episode, guest David Tensen and I discuss the pressures pastors and ministers face across all denominations and church backgrounds.
David also finishes with a live reading of two of his poems.
We look at issues such as:
- Understanding the pressure pastors face from vocational, familial, organisational and community perspectives
- Is psychology a four-letter word
- Building cultural competency for mental health professionals
