Philip Wagner offers insight into the six major struggles pastors face in the ministry and how to overcome them.
Peter Drucker, the late leadership guru, said that the four hardest jobs in America (and not necessarily in order, he added) are:
- The President of the United States
- A university president
- A CEO of a hospital and
- A pastor

This is the reality—the job of a pastor can be 24/7 and carry unique challenges.
