The Burden and the Lie

The Burden and the Lie: What Burnout Really Reveals About Modern Pastor is a powerful and unflinching exploration of the hidden weight carried by today’s spiritual leaders. Using vivid imagery and honest insight, the book exposes the quiet struggles behind pastoral burnout—disillusionment, isolation, and the crushing expectations that too often go unspoken. Yet it also illuminates a path toward freedom, renewal, and a truer understanding of calling.

Both prophetic and pastoral, this book invites readers, churches, and leaders alike to confront the lies that bind them and to rediscover a ministry rooted not in relentless striving, but in grace. A compelling and compassionate guide for anyone seeking to understand the deeper story behind burnout—and the hope on the other side.
