Some key takeaways from this conversation:
Max Lucado on facing pastoral burnout: "Little by little, I began to just harden, just harden. I found myself unresponsive. My compassion level began to disappear. My sympathy began to evaporate. And then I couldn't sleep.... So at the age of 35, I was a classic case of pastoral burnout.... The church was growing, or at least healthy. But the demands were far too many, or I did not know how to put up boundaries...I was just a mess."
Max Lucado on trusting the Holy Spirit in ministry: "I don't panic anymore. I don't get anxious. I really don't. I used to. I used to, and I used to think it was up to me. But now I'm convinced that the Holy Spirit will bring to remembrance what I need. Why? Because he's my paraclete. He's my counselor, he's my comforter."
Max Lucado on how the Holy Spirit is key to all of life and ministry: “I think maybe my only job is today, just to walk with the Holy Spirit…. and if I make that my primary job, everything else will fall into place.”
