Pastoral ministry is deeply rewarding, but without healthy boundaries, it can quickly lead to burnout. This week, host Dave Stone sits down with psychologist, author, and leadership expert Dr. John Townsend to talk about why boundaries are essential for pastors, church leaders, and their families. Drawing from decades of counseling experience and his landmark book Boundaries, John offers practical wisdom on guarding your time, sharing leadership, and shifting from responsibility for people to responsibility to people.
