In this episode, Dr. Eric Bryant interviews Mike and Lori McDaniel about the Great Invitation, a ministry focused on providing soul care and support for pastors and church leaders. They discuss the challenges of burnout, the importance of community, and the need for spiritual direction.

From their website:
