The fuse is getting shorter every day . . .

For many pastors the fuse is slowly burning, getting shorter with every passing day. It's only a matter of time before the wear and tear of the pastorate explodes in emotional and physical burnout, leaving only the charred fragments of a once-vibrant ministry.

Among the rubble of raw emotion, broken families, and health problems, pastors find themselves trapped beneath the enormous weight of shepherding. Sunday comes seven days a week. And there is no relief in sight.

Physician Daniel Spaite and pastor's wife Debbie Salter Goodwin have written Time Bomb in the Church to help pastors identify harmful patterns of living that lead to burnout. Together, they provide expert advice on dealing emotionally and physically with one of the toughest jobs around. Over-extended, exhausted, and exasperated pastors will find this book an encouragement in the search for balance in the midst of chaos. Time Bomb in the Church: Defusing Pastoral Burnout. Because, pastors have personal lives, too. Paper.
