About this listen

No one intends to lead up with a toxic soul, but the compound interest of discouragement and disappointment steals your passion for building God’s church. 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.

It’s possible to lead and love Jesus at the same time. It’s possible to have friends in ministry and not see every other church as a competitor. It's possible to feel successful no matter the size of your church.

great stuff for pastors

this is one of the best books I've heard in a long time and I've heard several books. Very cathartic for the soul.

Real, raw, priceless.

As someone who is called but has not yet entered the ministry, this book is absolutely invaluable. Thank you, Jason & Jeremy, for writing it, and sharing the uncomfortable and incontrovertible aspects of what it means, in everyday practice, to devote one’s life to serving God’s people within the four walls.

Refreshed and Renewed

Being alone is hard, but feeling alone is worse. I appreciate pastors Jason and Jeremy for sharing their insight, and helping me step out of feeling alone in my toxic soul and toward the joy in the work to which God has called me.
