Episode 434 The Post Christmas Crash
from The Daily LEAD · host Brad Otto
The weeks leading up to Christmas are some of the most beautiful—and exhausting—moments in the life of a church leader. After the services, the programs, the giving campaigns, the pastoral care, and the emotional weight of the season, many leaders hit what I call “The Post-Christmas Crash.” In this episode, Pastor Brad explores why this crash happens, how it impacts our leadership, and what we can intentionally do to care for our souls and our teams after the busiest season of the year. You’ll walk away with practical rhythms, compassionate insights, and a renewed understanding that rest is not a reward—it’s a responsibility.
