It's no secret that ministry is a demanding task with a lot of pressure on the shoulders. The hours are long, the expectations are high, and the emotional toll can be incredibly draining.
If you are a pastor or a church leader, it is very important to recognize the signs of burnout and get help if needed. It is important to remember that you're human too and not immune to burnout.
With the right support and encouragement, you can overcome these feelings and achieve a balance that can lead to a more fulfilling ministry.
The Bible tells us that we must seek the face of God so we can truly love and serve him. This doesn't mean you'll never feel low or blue — it means that God's grace is a constant source of strength, and we shouldn't underestimate the importance of taking a spiritual breather.
In this episode, our guest, Michael MacKenzie, a licensed professional counselor, and ordained pastor, will speak on the topic of burnout, as well as how to recognize and overcome it. He'll also share practical tips for getting back on track and finding balance.
“I love getting to work with people in ministry. They're just great folks who are willing to sacrifice for the kingdom and serve and yet, at the same time, take on things that they don't need to take on.”
-Michael Mackenzie
