Wounded Shepherds: Healing for Burned Out Pastors and Leaders
Are you a leader who's poured out for others-yet feel empty yourself?
Wounded Shepherds is a lifeline for pastors, missionaries, and ministry leaders facing burnout, betrayal, disillusionment, and emotional exhaustion. With biblical wisdom, pastoral compassion, and hard-earned personal insight, Bradley Sliedrecht offers a voice of healing for those silently struggling under the weight of ministry.
Drawing from Scripture and real-life experience, each chapter gently guides leaders through their wounds-offering space to grieve, reflect, and recover. You'll explore the reality of spiritual fatigue, the pain of church betrayal, the dangers of isolation, and the forgotten gift of sabbath rest.
But this is not a book about quitting. It's a book about coming home-to your Shepherd, your calling, and your first love.
Whether you're in the middle of ministry pain or walking alongside someone who is, this book offers hope, restoration, and a fresh beginning.
You are not alone. You are not unseen. And you are not finished.
