Pastors Need Pastors Too

Who ministers to the minister? What happens when the shepherd breaks?

Pastors Need Pastors Too! is a timely and powerful book that pulls back the curtain on the emotional, mental, and spiritual toll of ministry leadership. Written by Dr. Ferris W. Corbett, DrPH-an experienced public health educator, ordained minister, and wellness coach-this book challenges the silence surrounding pastoral burnout and offers a grace-filled roadmap to restoration.

Drawing from Scripture, real-life stories, and evidence-based mental health strategies, Dr. Corbett addresses:

• The warning signs of pastoral fatigue and spiritual exhaustion
• The need for sabbaticals, soul care, and shared leadership
• The role of therapy, spiritual direction, and peer support in ministry
• How congregations, church boards, and denominations can create cultures of care

Whether you're a pastor needing permission to breathe, a church leader wanting to do better, or a believer ready to support your shepherd-this book is for you.

This is more than a resource. It's a call to action.

Because even the most faithful shepherds need rest.
Even the strongest pastors need support.
Pastors need Pastors, too.
