About this listen

In this episode, we hear from a longtime friend and mentor, David Burke. With over 25 years of ministry experience—including 16 years in college ministry and nearly a decade as a senior pastor—David has a deep well of insight into the life of a pastor. Today, he serves with Standing Stone Ministry, offering confidential coaching and support to pastors and ministry leaders who are often overwhelmed, isolated, or burned out.

In this conversation, David helps us explore the often invisible emotional toll of pastoral work, the pressure of leadership, and the loneliness that can come with it. We also discuss how the public narrative tends to highlight scandals while overlooking the everyday struggles of faithful leaders quietly doing the work.

This episode is for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of what pastors go through—and why they need our support, not just our criticism.
