Books: Church Burnout

I recently did a search on Amazon using the phrase "Church Burnout". Here are the top 5 books sorted by relevance:

1. Mad Church Disease: Overcoming the Burnout Epidemic

2. Doing Church As A Team
3. Time Bomb in the Church: Defusing Pastoral Burnout
4. Church Unique: How Missional Leaders Cast Vision, Capture Culture, and Create Movement (J-B Leadership Network Series)
5. Preventing Ministry Failure: A ShepherdCare Guide for Pastors, Ministers and Other Caregivers

If you are looking for some summer reading to help understand this topic, perhaps these books will add to your efforts at Serving Strong in the church.

Hi,

I would like to share with you a good ebook that's free to help pastors and their wives with discouragement and burnout. You can find it at: http://www.stoppastorburnout.com . It's quite helpful.

If you have pastor friends or even their wives, we are currently inviting pastors and pastor wives to join charter membership club for free for 2 months,you might want to share this with them. You may visit http://www.susandavidlifecoach.com/index.php/sponsors for more information.

We would also like to invite you to view our video on this topic at
