Pastors Need Pastors Too!: What Happens When the Shepherd Breaks? A Call to Care for Church Leaders (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798282885637)

Who cares for the caregiver when the weight of ministry becomes too heavy?

In Pastors Need Pastors Too!, Dr. Ferris W. Corbett, DrPH, delivers a timely and compassionate call to the Church: it's time to care for the shepherds who have faithfully cared for us. Drawing from over 30 years of ministry, health education, and counseling experience, Dr. Corbett combines biblical truth, real-life testimonies, and evidence-based mental health practices to reveal the emotional, spiritual, and physical toll of pastoral leadership.

This book is not just an exposé on burnout-it's a roadmap to recovery. From sabbaticals and soul care to leadership reform and family support, each chapter equips pastors and the people who serve with them to build healthier, more sustainable ministry lives.

Perfect for pastors, church boards, lay leaders, seminaries, and denominational networks, Pastors Need Pastors Too! answers the question too many leaders are afraid to ask:

"What happens when the shepherd breaks?"

Let this be the beginning of a new conversation-and a healing movement-where pastors are no longer expected to suffer in silence, but are supported with grace, wisdom, and love.
