As churches grow and navigate complex ministries, the mental health of the main church pastor becomes an increasingly critical issue. Pastors, often viewed as the spiritual leaders and the emotional center of the church, carry immense responsibilities that can impact their well-being. Without proper care, pastors are at risk of burnout, stress, and emotional exhaustion, which can lead to ineffective ministry and personal struggles. As stewards of both the pastor's well-being and the health of the church, board members and elder boards must proactively address these issues with intention, compassion, and governance best practices.
