In most respects, congregations do not understand pastoral pain. There is a destruction of a precious human resource in the church. Undue and unfair criticism. Unfair financial packages. Some accept their suffering as part of God's plan.
Many pastors remain in their hard situation, having no retreat, no alternatives.
Later in life the moves are backward, back through the same discouraging situations as before, bearing the same burdens, having wounds reopened. Some quit the ministry. A few drop out of church. The lack of time to fulfill responsibilities. The lack of congregational cooperation.
