Your spiritual life can erode even when you work with the gospel and the Scriptures every day. In “Persevering in Ministry,” Mike Emlet identifies the warning signs and describes the pressures that lead to ministry burn-out. He then guides you into practical ways to cultivate your spiritual life and health in the midst of serving others.

Mike is a faculty member and counselor at CCEF, where he has served since 2001. He holds a doctor of medicine from the University of Pennsylvania and a master of divinity from Westminster Theological Seminary. Prior to joining CCEF, Mike worked as a family physician for eleven years. He has particular interests in working with ministry leaders and with those who struggle with anxiety, depression, and OCD. He has published numerous books, including CrossTalk (New Growth Press, 2009), Descriptions and Prescriptions (New Growth Press, 2017), and Saints, Sufferers, and Sinners (New Growth Press, 2021).
