Barriers to Pastoral Thriving

Structural and cultural failings in the Mennonite church can lead to burn-out for church leaders. How do we fail to support those who minister to us? How can we better nurture and care for our leaders? Researchers from AMBS hold detailed interviews with leaders who have left the pastorate. Grounded in these conversations, initiatives are created to foster the health and well-being of pastors.

Pastors will be identified through tenure records for this study. Please visit our website again to keep up-to-date with findings from this study.
