I’ve been in the process of adding some helpful stuff to the 5th Anniversary Expanded Edition of my first book, Mad Church Disease which launches next month (woot!)
In that journey, I realized people were needing something NOW. Something to help NOW.
The emails I get daily show me that burnout is still epidemic in ministry and in the church world and if anything has become more taboo in the last five years, which breaks my heart.
Over Christmas, I sat down and wrote Beating Burnout: A 30 Day Guide to Hope and Health that covers
- rest
- spiritual health
- emotional health
- relational health
- physical health
- and prayer.
Rinse and repeat for five weeks and you’ve got yourself a 70-something page book.
Beating Burnout: A 30 Day Guide to Hope and Health releases as an eBook this week! (The print will follow shortly!)
Each day has
- scripture
- a short and meaningful reflection
- and a section for practical application and a page for notes.
It reads fast because I know you don’t have much time, but I pray it takes you directly to the heart of our Father with no fluff, only grace, and gives you enough action when, after thirty days are over, you find yourself in a healthier and more intentional place than you are now.
Can you do me a favor?
If this book sounds like something you need, can you give me your email address so I can ping you when it comes out? I won’t bother you for anything else. And, if you’d like to spread the word ahead of time, I’ve made some tweets to help you do that!

One response to “Is Burnout Beating You?”
Done and done! Between work and dealing with my wife’s health issues, I was deep-fried over the last half of December. We had to make the trip to Tampa (a 2 1/2 hour non-stop drive across Florida’s widest part outside of the Panhandle) twice in a week. I had been trying to get creative and write blog posts (including for a new, more generic blog like yours & Chad Jones’), but I couldn’t even deal with my normally-favorite iPad/Android (yeah, I have both) games. The Saturday after the second Tampa trip, I think I slept in until like 3 pm! I’m recovering, and can actually remember some of my dreams (a symptom of improvement!), but I was definitely burned out!
As always, I’m in with Beating Burnout.
