I have a confession to make.
I’ve been feeling burned out lately.
This has been a glorious year of ministry: campus work, the new book, expansions in the radio ministry, etc. But it has also been a challenging year—funny how “success” and trials often go together.
Exactly what has caused the burnout? I’m not really sure. But I have a few ideas:
*First and foremost, I’ve had to make some tough ministry decisions this year. I’m at peace with these decisions, but getting there has been a long, exhausting process. Sorry for not going into more detail, but it’s for the best.
*This has been a very busy year—balancing several new ministry opportunities. I think I kind of hit a “wall” last month after February (my busiest month).
*Financial stress. God is faithful, and I’ve never once had to really worry about where my next meal is coming from. But like everyone else, I am affected by the current economic climate.
*It’s hot. Really hot.
I’m praying my visit home will be a time to recharge.
