Dan, still pastoring in Texas, for an interfaith online collective called AllCreation.org. Rev.

The Farewell Episode: A Lutheran Minister, a UCC Pastor, & a Rabbi talk clergy burnout

Rev. Dan and Rabbi Matt are joined by a special guest, Rev. Mindy Roll, to discuss clergy burnout in this final episode of the Reverend Dan & Rabbi Matt Podcast. Rev. Roll serves as Campus Minister for Treehouse Lutheran Campus Ministries to Texas A&M and Blinn in Bryan-College Station, Texas. In this candid conversation between three ministers serving in different contexts in the Brazos Valley, the Lutheran minister, the United Church of Christ pastor, and the Rabbi give a glimpse into their everyday experiences as clergy. Espeically because this is the "farewell episode" of the Rev. Dan & Rabbi Matt Podcast, it's fitting for the discussion to focus on clergy burnout. Listen to find out more, and please share with others to raise awareness. Shalom and peace, y'all.

If lament is such a large part of our Judeo-Christian life, shouldn't we embrace and practice it more in the face of so much brokenness and chaos? How might our faith and communal life benefit from intentional lamentation in our present context?
