Episode 46: A Biblical Response to Burnout (with Rob Green)
Have you ever felt burnt out? After a long day of vocational ministry, you return home but you can’t stop worrying and thinking about all the people under your care. Perhaps you are wondering how you will manage to keep pastoring in the midst of this crazy world.
These thoughts are quite common among church leadership and burnout is a far more common occurrence than ever before. Barna reported in 2022 that a staggering 42% of pastors said they were considering leaving their jobs, which Barna refers to as a “burnout epidemic.”
This is why I am honored to welcome someone who has spoken on the topic of burnout and stress, Dr. Rob Green. Rob has been a member of the Faith Church staff for 20 years and his responsibilities include oversight of the Faith Biblical Counseling Ministry and teaching New Testament at Faith Bible Seminary.
In this episode, Rob shares the different types of burnout, how to discern when burnout is an issue of rest or obedience, the challenges of vocational ministry, and much more.
