From Burned Out to Beloved: Soul Care for Wounded Healers

As a social worker, jail chaplain, and justice advocate, Bethany Dearborn Hiser pushed herself to the brink of burnout—and then kept going. Stress, despair, and compassion fatigue overwhelmed her ability to function. She was called to serve the abused, addicted, and homeless people in her community. Yet she was emotionally and spiritually exhausted.

Something needed to change. Searching for answers, Hiser learned that trauma affects everyone who is exposed to it—not only those experiencing firsthand violence, homelessness, and addiction, but also the social workers, therapists, pastors, relief workers, teachers, and community development workers who are trying to help. Psychologists call it "secondary trauma." Hiser discovered that she needed the very soul care that she was providing to others.

From Burned Out to Beloved is Hiser's story of burnout, self-discovery, and spiritual renewal. But more than that, it's a trauma-informed soul care guide for Christians working in high-stress, helping professions. There are many resources on secondary trauma and spiritual disciplines, but few bring these areas together. From Burned Out to Beloved equips listeners to confess their limitations, embrace their identities as beloved children of God, and flourish in the ministries where God has called them.
