About this listen
The purpose of Preaching Through Pain is to accompany preachers and people in general to assist them in handling the great challenge of being gifted to do a job but having the pain of life stand in the way of performance.
We all know that it is inevitable for pain to show up in life; however, too few of us know how to preach through pain in the process. According to the Schaeffer Institute, research suggest that 1,500 pastors quit the ministry each month due to the pain that comes with the position. Preaching through Pain will equip the listener to withstand the various vicissitudes of life. The purpose of this audiobook is to equip ministers and lay people alike to effectively preach, teach, write, and simply perform while experiencing pain.

Somewhere along the way, doing the work of God steals your heart for God, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Toxic Soul examines the challenges church leaders face such as dealing with criticism, people leaving the church, a lack of resources, unmet expectations, and more.

Are you ready to open your imagination to the possibility that God has a vision for your life that is greater? We all have honest moments when we're gripped by a desire to feel that what we're doing matters more. That who we are matters more. And according to one of the most shocking verses in the Bible, Jesus wants the very same thing for every one of us. If you're tired of being ordinary, it's time to dream bigger. If you're feeling overwhelmed about where to begin, it's time start smaller.
