Battered Pastors

This week's Mortification of Spin: Bully Pulpit addresses the issue of battered pastors. Having gone through an experience of battering for several years, it is a topic near and dear to my heart. Take time to listen to the discussion HERE.

The following are the books we mention:

New Life in the Wasteland by Douglas Kelly

The Roots of Endurance by John Piper

2 Corinthians by Scott Hafemann

Handbook for Battered Leaders by Balda & Balda

Last year I wrote a series of 5 posts on the subject of battered pastors:

Part One

Part Two

Part Three

Part Four

Part Five
