Silent Struggles Beyond the Pulpit Exploring Depression and Self-Care in Church Leadership

By Larry Green

In Silent Struggles Beyond the Pulpit, Rev. Dr. Larry Green, Sr. lifts the veil on the often-overlooked emotional and mental health challenges faced by those called to lead in ministry. With deep compassion, theological insight, and practical tools, this groundbreaking book explores the hidden burdens of pastors and spiritual leaders who serve faithfully while suffering silently.

Through candid reflection and spiritual encouragement, Dr. Green addresses key topics such as burnout, grief, emotional fatigue, the pressure to perform, and the taboo of depression in faith communities. Each chapter offers scriptural grounding, personal stories, and restorative practices-from journaling and creative expression to sabbath rest and spiritual disciplines-that empower leaders to confront their pain and prioritize self-care without guilt.

Whether you're a pastor, ministry worker, or someone who supports leaders in your faith community, this book offers a vital message: your healing matters. Silent Struggles Beyond the Pulpit is not just a call to awareness-it's a compassionate guide to wholeness, helping leaders rediscover their voice, renew their purpose, and embrace the grace to rest, heal, and rise again.
