" Caring for Our Shepherds is a clearly written and very helpful book on understanding and coping with burnout as a pastor. Frederick, Thai, and Dunbar provide practical ways of managing pastoral burnout, including spiritual disciplines and four Christian devotional meditation practices of lectio divina, the Jesus Prayer, centering prayer, and the examen. Highly recommended!" --Siang-Yang Tan, senior professor of clinical psychology, Fuller Theological Seminary "This book provides a practical conceptual overview of understanding the unique aspects of ministry burnout and how to care for those experiencing it. The authors provide practical ways for spiritual disciplines to be developed in a minister's lifestyle to enhance their personal and ministry health. The reader will discover a pathway to respond to their own ministry struggles as well as help others within their circle of influence." --Roger A. Yancey, executive director, Tryon Evergreen Baptist Association "Mindfully constructed for the busy and burdened pastor with direct, insightful information and practical steps, Caring for Our Shepherds is a necessary read for all pastors in ministry." --Cody Bockelkamp, biblical counselor.
