At 29, Marcus A. Cylar became the youngest Presiding Elder in the entire African Methodist Episcopal Church. By age 31, Marcus found himself out of pastoral ministry, hurt, confused, and unsure about the rest of his life and ministry. In completing a Doctor of Ministry degree in the midst of his burnout experience, he learned much about the epidemic of pastoral burnout and developed a framework for recovery based on what he's learned both academically and, more importantly, experientially. In Rebuild, you'll not only read about Marcus' brief career as a pastor and administrator in the AME Church, but you'll also embark on a journey of deep introspection, discovery, and application, as you'll learn not just the "why?" but the "what now?" of burnout in pastoral ministry. Written not from the perspective of a seasoned sage, but as an enlightened fellow traveler, Marcus offers relevant and informative material for burnt-out pastors, pastors looking to avoid burnout, and committed laypersons sincerely looking to support their pastor. Rebuild will inspire you to reflect theologically, learn anecdotally, and apply devotionally, guiding leaders on a path to renewed vitality and productivity in the kingdom of God.
