Peter's Boat: Renewing the Vitality of Burned-out Church Workers

Pastors and church leaders often complain of being burned-out. Too much is expected. Too often, the people they help respond with apathy. Where are the rewards for being a committed Christian serving in a position of leadership? This short book (100 pages) provides practical answers.

We are like lab rats, running a maze, and the cheese is long gone. Burnout isn't fixed by resting. We need new goals, and better rewards. Stop feeling guilty about burnout.

About the Author

Bill Kemp is quick to admit that he has come real close to quitting. Peter was close to quitting fishing, when Jesus made him a fisher-of-men. Renewal often involves transition.
