Holy and Worn Out: For pastors hanging by a prayer and a Google Doc

Holy and Worn Out: For pastors hanging by a prayer and a Google Doc

Ministry is holy. Ministry is hard. And some days, it’s both at the same time. Holy & Worn Out is a podcast for pastors and church leaders who love the Church but feel the weight of leading it. If you’ve ever felt called and exhausted, faithful and frustrated, passionate and just plain tired — this space is for you. I’m Pastor Robbie Foreman, and every week we’re having real conversations about the pressure, the purpose, and the heart behind the work we do. No hype. No formulas. Just encouragement for the days when you wonder if it’s worth it — and reminders that God’s not done with you yet.

Through honest conversation, Scripture, and practical steps, we’ll explore:

  • How ministry weight slowly creeps in and crushes you if unchecked

  • The difference between Savior Mode...

In this raw and honest episode, Pastor Robbie reminds us that ministry is heavy — not because we’re doing it wrong, but because loving people is heavy. If you’ve ever felt tired, overwhelmed, or wondered if you’re the only one carrying more than you can handle, this...
