How to Recover From Church Burnout — What the Bible Says About Rest and Serving
from Sunday To Society · host Riley Reno
Last week we named it. Church burnout is real, it is widespread, and the church's own culture often creates the conditions for it. But naming the problem is only half the conversation. Today we finish it.In part two of this series Sunday to Society digs into what God's Word actually says about rest, limits, delegation, and sustainable service. This episode is not permission to stop serving. The body of Christ needs you. But God never designed you to serve from empty — and today we talk about what serving from fullness actually looks like.SOURCES & FURTHER READINGHere's What's Happening Pastoral burnout dropping as churches become more open about mental health — Barna via WORLD Magazine — https://wng.org/roundups/pastors-at-risk-1771886894 Building cultures of sustainable service — ACS Technologies — https://www.acstechnologies.com/church-growth/church-volunteer-burnout-is-real-heres-how-to-stop-it-before-it-starts/ Loneliness and isolation drive ministry leaders out more than the work itself — Fuller Youth Institute — https://fulleryouthinstitute.org/blog/youth-ministry-burnout-doesnt-have-to-be-your-storyHow Did We Get Here?
