Clergy Burnout

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Fred Lehr’s work on clergy burnout brings together a wide range of necessary topics for active clergy. The core of his work is restoring pastors by exploring codependence and personality types, but he goes much further. He also focuses on hope and healing and provides a practical guide for transforming how we think about our work in congregations. In addition, Lehr’s concepts have been immensely helpful for training lay pastors. His work on developing spiritual maturity is particularly critical in the mainline church today, when we need leaders with depth, knowledge, and biblical literacy.”
