What’s the buzz around the metaphorical water coolers where pastors gather? ~Burnout~ In this episode, Casey, Amy, Colleen, and some clergy friends share experiences of burnout and its impact on preaching. The Pause/Play Center seeks to hold space for preachers to tell their stories and be heard into healing so our sacred imaginations can run wild again!
