Losing the faith: The great �pastor resignation�

A recent study found that pastors nationwide are struggling with burnout and quitting just like much of the U.S. workforce.

Barna, a Christian research organization, reported that stress, isolation and political division are some of the issues factoring into pastors� desire to quit. As of March 2022, 42% of pastors considered quitting, according to the data.
NewsNation�s Ashleigh Banfield spoke with author and Pastor Glenn Packiam about why members of clergy are experiencing their own �great resignation.� He says it became �a job that no one could actually do� as different expectations increased over the years.
