Toxic Soul: A Pastor's Guide to Leading Without Losing Heart

De: Jason Isaacs, Jeremy Isaacs

Narrado por: Jason Isaacs

No one intends to lead up with a toxic soul, but the compound interest of discouragement and disappointment steals your passion for building God’s church. Somewhere along the way, doing the work of God steals your heart for God, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Toxic Soul examines the challenges church leaders face such as dealing with criticism, people leaving the church, a lack of resources, unmet expectations, and more.

It’s possible to lead and love Jesus at the same time. It’s possible to have friends in ministry and not see every other church as a competitor. It's possible to feel successful no matter the size of your church.

If you are a Pastor this is a “must read”!

This book gives candid insight into the struggles of pastoring while offering real solutions.

Maybe the best book on the topic ever!

Important read for burnout in ministry

Very good read. This book had multiple stories of issues in ministry alongside solutions.

So great!

I'm very thankful for this book. it made me feel like I wasn't alone and gave great instruction to prevent burnout in ministry. I can't wait to share it with my husband and other pastors.

great stuff for pastors

this is one of the best books I've heard in a long time and I've heard several books. Very cathartic for the soul.

Good Reminders

Cautionary tales and encouraging words to help those in vocational ministry avoid bitterness, burnout, and self destruction.

must read!

this is an absolute must, for anyone in the ministry, or even considering the ministry! this book spoke to me on so many levels. at times I felt he was writing what I felt.

Added to my annual reading list

if you are a pastor, add this book to your list! I identified so deeply with the pain described in this book but I'm hopeful with the help offered as well!

don't wait, read this now!

Great book

I enjoyed this book. Sometimes we have to look up instead of what’s going on in our lives.

For pastors

Every pastor should read this book. It will make you aware of pitfalls to look out for or call out areas you struggle with now.

Real, raw, priceless.

As someone who is called but has not yet entered the ministry, this book is absolutely invaluable. Thank you, Jason & Jeremy, for writing it, and sharing the uncomfortable and incontrovertible aspects of what it means, in everyday practice, to devote one’s life to serving God’s people within the four walls.
