Why Your Church Staff Is Burned Out (And What to Do About It)

About this episode

This episode explores the deeper issues driving burnout in church teams beyond just staffing and workload.

Most pastors assume burnout is a staffing problem or a workload problem. But in this episode, we are pulling back the curtain on what is actually driving burnout inside church teams today.
