It's a Mad, Mad World
I have recently met up with a great blogging friend in Dallas. (See below post.) She's a very talented writer who God has allowed to grow up with a father in the ministry, and she's seen the good, bad and the ugly. And, after a period of time away from the church she went into the ministry herself and saw a little more good, really really bad and pretty darn ugly.
During that time a seed was planted for a book regarding burnout in the ministry on all levels, from staff to volunteers that is currently titled Mad Church Disease. I know that many of you who read my blog are involved in a church in some way whether it be staff, staff wives or 40 hour volunteers. If you could please do me a favor and go take her survey, it would help this under-discussed topic be opened as it should be.
Here is the link to the surveys. It will lead you to which one you need to take.
