Did you know that 40% of pastors are at a high risk of burnout?
The data suggests that as of fall 2023, 53% of religious leaders have seriously considered leaving pastoral ministry at least once since 2020. This share is significantly higher than the 37% of pastors who reported feeling the same way in 2021.
We know burnout comes down to two things:
- Church leaders have too much on their plates
- They don’t see the payoff of their efforts
Sound familiar? You aren’t alone.
Pastors have to do a lot of work in the day-to-day duties of leading a church, and, despite that heavy workload, aren’t seeing the results they deserve, so it doesn’t feel rewarding at the end of the day.
When you’re burned out, it’s hard to stay motivated to do all the important work you need to do as a church leader. In this article, you’ll see how technology can reduce your workload, bring your teams together, and drive the outputs that make your hard work feel worth every late night.
