Zebulon Health Solutions (ZHS) is a
non-for-profit Christian organization
looking to help alleviate the stresses
of our Pastors and leaders.
We’ve developed a team of pastors who operate and walk in the same leadership role as you do. Our team is passionate about utilizing foundational biblical principles to assist with helping pastors and their team journey into emotional freedom.
Pastors and other ministry leaders are often under so much stress that they may find themselves just hanging on by a thread, about to burn out from exhaustion or blow out morally. Pastor stress statistics paint a stark picture.
Depression: Research shows that 23% of pastors struggle with significant depression at some point during their ministry (Lifeway, 2020).
Loneliness: A study by Barna found that 58% of pastors say they frequently feel isolated and lonely in their roles.
Work-Life Balance: 80% of pastors believe that pastoral ministry negatively impacts their family due to time demands and emotional strain (Shepherd’s Watch Survey, 2021).
Marriage Stress: 33% of pastors’ spouses feel isolated or unappreciated in the church, which often creates stress in their marriages (Barna, 2017).
Moral Failures: 18% of pastors admit to having engaged in an inappropriate relationship or behavior that they considered morally compromising (Pastor Care, 2019).
Accountability: 72% of pastors do not have a close friend, mentor, or accountability partner with whom they can discuss their personal struggles (Fuller Institute, 2021).
Pastors’ struggles with emotional health, family challenges, and moral failures can lead to diminished leadership, loss of trust, and spiritual decline within their churches, negatively affecting congregational growth and unity.
