As recent as May 2020, Barna Research found that: 

• 3/10 pastors (31%) say they’re struggling w/ their emotional wellbeing.
• 26% admit to struggling w/ their relational wellbeing.
• Over half admit to being tired. (51%)
• 2 in 5 admit to feeling primarily exhausted (41%)
• Sad (41%)

We discussed these statistics in our episode On Why Rest Matters For Pastors.In this episode, Stan & Josh take a look at the deeper issue of pastoral discouragement and discuss five ways that pastors can handle those times when they're having a terrible day, week, month, or year.
