Change can feel unsettling—even when it’s necessary.
It can bring uncertainty, fear, and the sense that the ground beneath you is shifting.

Beauty can be one of the hardest things to believe about ourselves—
especially in a world that constantly tells us how we should look, act, or be.

Todays topic is Ability. Sometimes the hardest struggle isn’t what we’re facing—
it’s the quiet fear that we don’t have the ability to handle it.

Not every comment meant to help actually heals. Sometimes it adds pressure to pain. Faith doesn’t mean pretending you’re okay, and the church should be the safest place to be honest about the struggle. #ChurchCulture #FaithAndMentalHealth #ChristianCompassion #HiddenPain #SpiritualPressure

Half of the church thinks depression is just a lack of faith. Many pastors rarely talk about mental health—because they feel unprepared. Faith isn’t about hiding pain—it’s about creating spaces where honesty is stronger than appearances. #FaithAndMentalHealth #ChurchCulture #MentalHealthAwareness

Depression isn’t always sadness — sometimes it’s the mind interpreting exhaustion.
Psalm 88 gives language for souls that feel heavy, and Scripture makes room for the dark.

📣 New Podcast! "Episode 51 - When Passion Becomes Obsession - Discerning the Fire God Gave Us" on @Spreaker #bigpicturefaith #christianrecovery #faithandmentalhealth #godovertasks #letgoandletgod #ministryburnout #obsessionvspassion #pastorsinrecovery #recoverypodcast #restinjesus
Episode 51 - When Passion Becomes Obsession - Discerning the Fire God Gave Us
Episode 51 - When Passion Becomes Obsession - Discerning the Fire God Gave Us
In this episode of Pastors in Recovery, Jon Hammond shares a deeply personal story about chasing the dream of a finished backyard — and how even good desires can quietly become obsessions. Drawing from his own recovery and pastoral experience, Jon explores the difference between passion and obsession, what happens when our identity gets tied to getting things done, and how God invites us to rest, surrender, and rediscover that our worth isn’t in our work. With Scripture, reflection questions, and a vulnerable moment about health limitations, Jon invites pastors and ministry leaders to pause, breathe, and remember:
🔥 “The job won’t love you back. But God will.”
Whether you’re feeling burned out, overwhelmed, or simply caught up in all the doing… this episode is for you.
