What happens when ministry becomes more draining than life-giving? When the passion fades, the pressure builds, and you’re left wondering if you can keep going.
In this episode, we get honest about the emotional, spiritual, and practical weight of leadership in the church—especially when the joy that once fueled your calling starts to slip away. Whether you’re a pastor shouldering the demands of a congregation or a lay leader juggling ministry with everyday life, this conversation is for you.
Stick around till the end—we’ll share practical ways to offload the work that’s no longer essential, so you can focus on what God has actually called you to do.
