Pastoring is one of the most emotionally demanding callings—yet pastors often suffer in silence. In this powerful and transformative work, Dr. Daniel Ximba addresses the unseen psychological toll of ministry, where loneliness, anxiety, and burnout frequently shadow spiritual leadership. Through his Psychopneumatic approach, Dr. Ximba offers practical strategies for restoring mental, emotional, and spiritual balance—not only for pastors, but also for their families and congregations.
This resource equips church leaders to build healthier pastors, stronger families, and more compassionate churches by promoting open dialogue, professional collaboration with mental health experts, and a Christ-centered culture of care.
